Say That We're Sweethearts Again

Tom: Ab

G    Em           C        D
Life used to be a gay thing
  G           Em          C         D
A filled with happiness, night and day thing
      G             Em          D
It was something to have and to hold
       C               D         C
But it seems that your love grew cold

G       Em        C              D
I never knew that our romance had ended
G         Em          Bm
Until you poisoned my food
      C                D
And I thought it was a lark
         G                Em
When you kicked me in the park
C                      D
But now I think it was rude

G       Em        C              D
I never knew that our romance had finished
G          Em            Bm
Until that bottle hit my head
         C             D
Though I tried to be aloof
         G                 Em
When you pushed me off the roof
C          D           G
I feel our romance is dead

D                                     Em
It wouldn't have been so bad if you'd told me
     C
That someone had taken my place
    D                    Em
But no, you didn't even scold me
         C
You just tried to disfigure my face

G            Em          C              D
You'll never know how my poor heart is breaking
G           Em            Bm
It looks so helpless, but then
     C             D
Life used to be so classic
          G                    Em
Won't you please put back that acid
    C             D            G
And say that we're sweethearts again
