Tom: D
D
[Verse 1]
D G
Lover, please do not leave me departed
A
Finish the work that you started
D G D A
Don’t leave me some half painted dream
D G
Tell me why she takes all the love that I give her
A
Flows down the path like a river
D G D A
And throws my love out to the sea
[Chorus]
G D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
A
Why don’t they ever believe us
D
Do they know not what they do?
G D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
D A
And they all point their fingers at you.
[Verse 2]
D G
Windows, there’s all kinds of lovers within those
A
And while they’re together their love grows
D G D A
Fogs up the windows at night
D G
Questions, I’ve got more than I care to ask
A
They fall out like marbles on glass
D G D A
And the answers don’t seem to be right
[Chorus]
G D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
A
Why don’t they ever believe us
D
Do they know not what they do?
G D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
D G D A
And they all point their fingers at you.
[Instrumental]
D G A
D G D A
[Verse 3]
D G
Tomorrow, I’d trade all my nights for tomorrow
A
I’d trade all tomorrows to borrow
D G D A
An hour of yesterday
D G
And lovers, I guess that there’s all kinds of lovers
A
Maybe I’ll go find another
D G D A
But she’s probably a lifetime away
[Chorus]
G D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
A
Why don’t they ever believe us
D
Do they know not what they do?
G D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
D
And they all point their fingers at you.
