Lyrics
Verse: 1
G / / / / C G / / / / C
I stand up on a hill and watch your ship sail out
G / / / C / / / G
It?s taking you a way forever more
/ / / / / / C /
And I really should have gone down
G / / / / C
And wished you all the best,
G / / / C / / / G
Kissed your cheeks - and watched you climb on board
Bridge: I
F / / / / C / / F / / C
I even bought some roses, as a token of regard
F / / / / C / / D - SUS 4TH
But in the end; I didn?t have the heart
Chorus:
G / / / / C / / / / G /
I never was no good; at saying goodbye
/ / / / / C / / / / G
At try?n to keep the rain; from out of my eyes
C / / G / C / / G
I always mean to do what I should
/ C / / G / C / / / G
But I?ve never been any good, at saying goodbyes
SHORT TURNAROUND
OR
Bridge: 2 (0ptional)
When ever I?ve lost love; I?ve always been the same
And I don?t suppose I?m ever gonna change
REPEAT CHORUS
