Capo 2


Intro: (G)

(G)
It's my third cup of coffee
         (D)
The fifth time I said I'm sorry
        (C)  	  	  (Em)
The sun slowly peaking through the glass
     (C)  	       	  (D)
Says we've been up all night

        (G)
We both know where this is going
      (D)
It's been a long time coming
(C)          (Em)
Is it really over
       (C) 	  (D)
Is it really goodbye
(C)
Maybe I should say something
(D)
Maybe you'd change your mind
(C)  	  (Em)
Maybe maybe
      (C)  	    (D)
Buy a little more time


(Chorus)
            (G)
But I got nothin'
     (D)
No magic words
             (C)    (Em)
To stop your leaving

    (C)      (D)
To end this hurt
          (G)
I'm just blank
         (D)
I'm just staring into space
  	   (C)  	  (Em)  	    	    	    (C)  	    (D)
Praying please please let me think of something
  	    	 (G)
'Cause I got nothin'


    (G)
I watch you pack your things
          (D)
You look down at your ring
     (C)  	   (Em)  	    	     (C)           (D)
You slowly slip it off and then you lay it on our bed
(C)
Maybe I should pick it up
    (D)
And get down on my knees
(C)  	    	    	  (Em)  	    	  
Tell you what you wanna hear
    (C)  	    	  (D)
And give you what you need


(Chorus)
            (G)
But I got nothin'
     (D)
No magic words
             (C)    (Em)
To stop your leaving

    (C)      (D)
To end this hurt
          (G)
I'm just blank
         (D)
I'm just staring into space
  	   (C)  	  (Em)  	    	    	    (C)  	    (D)
Praying please please let me think of something
  	    	 (G)
'Cause I got nothin'


(Bridge)

    (Am)
You're almost at the door
        (D)
And you stop and turn around
       (C)
You're eyes are begging me
  	  (D7)
Please say something right now

  	   (G)
But I got nothin'
    (D)
No magic words
           (C)  	  (Em)
To stop you leaving
   (C)  	     (D)
To end this hurt
  	  (G)
I'm just blank
  	  (D)
I'm staring into space
  	   (C)  	  (Em)  	    	    	  (C)  	  
Praying please please let me think of something
  	      (C)(Em) (C)   (D)
