  E               Eadd9  E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
I kissed you baby, 
E    Eadd9  A 
Like I'd    done so many times, 
       E            Eadd9 E  Eadd9   E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
Didn't look up from your  paper, 
    
Or pay me any special mind, 
A 
 Just another Sunday morning, 
                 E Eadd9      A 
Can you hear the quiet in the breeze, 
                 E 
Can you hear the break in my voice, 
                               A               E Eadd9  E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
It's the sound hearts make when lovers leave. 
 

 
     E          Eadd9  E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
It's been awhile, 
E     Eadd9  A 
Since I've   felt the arms of a man, 
     E 
Wrap round me like a blanket, 
         
The way only a true lover can, 
A 
Just cold looks and tired words, 
     E                         A 
They burn like an early winter freeze, 
                 E 
Can you feel the room get still, 
                             A             A  E Eadd9  E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
It's the cold hard chill when lovers leave. 
 

 
E       A 
It only hurts, 
         E 
When you fight it, 
         
It only burns, 
                 A             E 
If you move your hand away too slow, 
 

 
A 
100 second chances, 
    E                        A 
And still nothing comes with ease, 
                 E 
Can you feel the darkness falling, 
                           A              A 
It's the numb you feel when lovers leave,

     E           Eadd9  E Eadd9  E Eadd9 
So I kissed you baby, 
        A 
For the very last time, 
       E 
Got my keys from the table, 
       
I had made up my mind, 
A 
The air caressed my face, 
     E                     A 
As I wiped my eyes with my sleeve, 
                 E 
Did you hear the room get quiet, 
                     A             A 
There's no words when lovers leave.
