The War In The Gulf Between Us

D    F#m    A


      D                   G    
It started long ago, you have to 
        D
understand
     F#m                       
we thought we'd make a life, we 
   G
thought we had a plan
     D                        G   
we built it like a house and 
             D
filled it up with kids
     F#m
the only trouble is
   C                    G
I won't be back again


        D                      
Cause something in my heart has 
  Gm
taken to the wind
     Bm                   E
and nothing I can do will bring it 
back again
  G                  Gm           
nobody ever wins the war in the 
      A
gulf between us
D                        Gm
something in my heart no longer 
could survive
       Bm                      E
those battles in the day, the quiet 
in the night
   G                         Gm   
I lost the will to fight the war 
             D          F#m
in the gulf between us

Am    G    Gm    A


     D                      G     
And then it all began, the 
           D
quarrels and the moods
Continues after the ad
  F#m                         
I tip-toed all around you; you 
  G
danced around me too
     D                       G    
and somewhere in between we found 
             D
the time for love
    F#m
the only trouble is
   C                  G
it never was enough


      D                        
Cause something in my heart has 
  Gm
taken to the wind
    Bm                    E
and nothing I can do will bring it 
back again
  G                  Gm           
nobody ever wins the war in the 
     A
gulf between us
D                        Gm
something in my heart no longer 
could survive
      Bm                       E
those battles in the day, the quiet 
in the night
   G                         Gm   
I lost the will to fight the war 
               D          F#m
in the gulf between us


G                         A
  What was the sense in keeping 
alive
C                            
  something that never made us 
    G
satisfied
Em                              A
  sometimes it's better to get on 
with your life
   C                           
I don't believe in hurting each 
   A7
other all the time

     D                         G  
Now after all the lawyers have 
        D
eaten our remains
    F#m                      
and after all the nights have 
  G
swallowed up the pain
     D                          G 
then maybe we will meet, we'll 
            D
find a neutral place
     F#m
the only trouble is
     C                       G
what will we have to say?


     D                            
Well something in our hearts will 
Gm
have to try and give
    Bm                          
and something in our hearts will 
 E
have to learn to live
  G                  Gm           
together and apart without another
       D            F#m
