D Dm6 A
I should have listened to the junkman, but now I've got to pay
E A7 D
It's a sin to taste a love and lose it, hold on to it boy, don't let go

But I don't want to beg, I don't wanna beg, I don't wanna beg

And I'll be your twilight lover, we don't need another cause we got each other, oh baby
F#m D Bm
We played those games, and I never thought that we'd do it, but we done it just the same
