Intro: D - A - E


Verse:

D           A             E
I know it’s late but it’s better than never
D        A                      E
I always thought that you would live forever
D             A             E
I should have told you then but
                D    A    E                   D    A   E
I’m telling you now           I’m telling you now

D        A            E
I had to stop cause I couldn’t stand the feedback
D       A           E
Off the rails and I didn’t want to be that
D        A        E                         D   A   E
I didn’t have the facts so, I’m telling you now
                D    A   E  
I’m telling you now


Chorus:
                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                       D                           A
When the door has closed and the whole world knows that it’s over
                C
I’m telling you now
         G                        D                   A
When the dust has cleared and you cannot hear me, you cannot
                D    A    E                   D    A   E
I’m telling you now           I’m telling you now


Verse:

D      A            E
It got bitter and I didn’t want to taste it
D           A            E
I lost your number and I never replaced it
D          A       E
I couldn’t face it then so
                D    A    E                   D    A   E
I’m telling you now           I’m telling you now                


Chorus:
                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                           D                   A
When the crowd’s gone home and we’re all alone, and it’s over
                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                        D                        A
When the bars have closed and the streets are frozen, it’s over
                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                        D                   A
When the dust has cleared and you cannot hear me, you cannot hear


Bridge:

  F              E                   A                G
I waited for the right time, but the right time never came
   F              E               A              G
It doesn’t mean a thing until you call it by its name
  F                     E
I should have called it then


Break: D - A - E (x4)


Chorus:

                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                   D                        A
When the door has closed and God only knows that it’s over
                C             
I’m telling you now,
         G                      D                          A
When the lights come on and the freaks are gone, and we’re older
                C                  G
I’m telling you now, I’m saying it loud and clear
D               A
I’m still here, I'm still here


Verse:

D        A            E
I had to stop cause I couldn’t stand the feedback
D         A           E
I heard a rumor and I couldn’t believe that
D          A             E
I heard it twice and the whole world went black
D            A           E                         
I’m kneeling down on the tracks


*Outro:

                D     A    E 
I’m telling you now... (I had to stop cause I couldn’t stand the feedback)...
