Standard (EADGBE)

 It started long ago, you have to understand

 we thought we'd make a life, we thought we had a plan

 we built it like a house and filled it up with kids

 the only trouble is

 I won't be back again

 Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind

 and nothing I can do will bring it back again

 nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us

something in my heart no longer could survive

 those battles in the day, the quiet in the night

 I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us

 And then it all began, the quarrels and the moods

 I tip-toed all around you; you danced around me too

 and somewhere in between we found the time for love

 the only trouble is

 it never was enough

 Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind

 and nothing I can do will bring it back again

 nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us

something in my heart no longer could survive

 those battles in the day, the quiet in the night

 I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us

What was the sense in keeping alive

something that never made us satisfied

sometimes it's better to get on with your life

 I don't believe in hurting each other all the time

*SOLO*

 Now after all the lawyers have eaten our remains

 and after all the nights have swallowed up the pain

 then maybe we will meet, we'll find a neutral place

 the only trouble is

 what will we have to say?

 Well something in our hearts will have to try and give

 and something in our hearts will have to learn to live

 together and apart without another war between us
