Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
(x3)
Eb

[Verse 1]

Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
When I opened your le-tter yesterday.
Eb Fm
I could not believe my eyes
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
‘Cause I’ve already given all I have to give
Eb Fm
And I think it must have slipped your mind
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
But I re- member not too long ago.
Eb Ab Bb
I gave it all. It’s gone and I gave it all to you
Gm7 Cm Bb F/A
Now I’m living on borrowed time, but it’s mine …Oh do you hear me?

[Chorus]

Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
I cannot believe it’s true
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
Are you really doing the things you do?
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7 Eb
No I cannot believe it’s you, really you

[Verse 2]

Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
Oh these people I’m talking to don’t understand
Eb Fm
Don’t seem to rea-lize
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
They’re listening but they’re not hearing me
Eb Fm
They’re being too cruel to be kind
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
Any kind of feeling that I had is gone
Eb Ab Bb
‘Cause I gave it all. It’s gone and I gave it all to you.
Gm7 Cm Bb F/A
Now I’m living on borrowed time, but it’s mine …Oh do you hear me?

[Chorus]
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
I cannot believe it’s true
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
Are you really doing the things you do?
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7 Eb
No I cannot believe it’s you, really you

[Bridge 1]

Db Eb
Over and over
Fm
I keep on telling myself
Db Eb
Over and over
Fm
I hope I’m gonna wake up
Db Eb
Over and over
Fm
I know it’s really happening
Db Eb Bb7
And there’s nothing that I can say
Db Eb Fm
‘Cos nothing can change all the things that you’ve done to me
Db Eb Bb7
Nothing can make me stay …’Cause you know

[Chorus]

Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
I cannot believe it’s true
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7
Are you really doing the things you do?
Abmaj7 Gm7 Fm7 Eb
No I cannot believe it’s you, really you

[Bridge 2]

F# G#7 Bmaj7 C#
I know it’s a crying shame, it’s all the same to you
F# G#7 Bmaj7 C#
It seems all so well laid out but I cannot get through.
Eb Ab
Never meant it to show
Eb Ab
It started happening, that’s all you know.
