[First Part]

A                Bm
I would say I'm sorry
       C#m
If I thought that it
        D
Would change your mind
 A                 Bm
But I know that, this time
        C#m
I have said too much
      D
Been too unkind

[Second Part]

C#m           Bm
    I try to laugh about it
 C#m   ( C#m     Cm )  Bm   C#m
Cover it all up with  lies
          Bm
I try to laugh about it
 C#m      ( C#m      Cm ) Bm
Hiding the tears in my    eyes

[Chorus]
