6  5   -5  6 -5   5   -4    4   -4 5
Oh Get me  away from here, I'm dying
 4   -4 5  -4  4   5  -3   4
Play me a song to set me free
3 -3 4   3      4    4    3   -3   4
Nobody writes them like they used to 
4  -4 -4  5    5  -5  6                
So it may as well be me
 5   -5 6   -5  5   -4 4 -4 5
Here on my own now after hours
 4   -4  5  -4  4  5  -3  4
Here on my own now on a  bus
  3   -3  4  3    4 
Think of it this way
  4  3      -3 4  4   -4 -4 5  5 -5  6
You could either be successful or be us
 
6     6    6     -5  5   -5  6
With our winning smiles, and us
 6    6    6 -5   5    -5   6
With our catchy tunes and words
  6  6  6   6-5 5-5       
Now we're  photogenic
-5   6    6  -5     5  -5 -5 5    
You know we don't stand a chance 

6    5   -5 6   -5   5    -4   4  -4 5
Oh I'll settle down with some old story
4 -4  5  -4  4      5   -3  4
About a boy who's just like me
  3       -3   4    3  4    4 3 -2   4    4 -4 -4
Thought there was love in everything and everyone
5      5  -5 6
You're so naive!
5     -5 6   -5  5  -4 4 -4 5
They always reach a sorry end
4     -4 5  -4  4  5  -3   4
They always get it in the end
3     -3 4    3    4  4 3 -2      4    4 -4 -455      -5   6
Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then
6    6  6       -5 5  -5  6
With a winning smile the boy
6     66-55    -5 6
With naivety succeeds
6   6   6 -5  5 -5   -5  6
At the final moment, I cried
4 6 -5    5  -5  -5 5
I always cry at endings
6    5    -5  6  -5  5  -4   4   -4  5  5
Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all 
5     -4    4   5 -3      4
From where I'm sitting, rain 
3 -3     4 3      4   4 3  -2 44
Washing against the lonely tenement 
-4   -4  5  5   -5 -5 6
Has set my mind to wander 
5 -5  6    -5 5  -4 4   -4 5
Into the windows of my lovers 
4    -4 5  -4    4  5  -3  4    
They never know unless I write 
  3   -3  4   3 4 4 3    -2 4    4      -4   -4  5   5    -5 6
"This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye" 
 6    6  6 -5 5   -5  -5 6
Said the hero in the story 
  6 6  6 -5 5    -5   6
“It is mightier than swords 
6  6     6    -5   5
I could kill you sure 
-5  6  6     6 6  6   -5   5   -5   -5    5
But I could only make you cry with these words" .
6    -5    -5    5
Cry with these words...
