Standard (EADGBE)

I always admitted pity

 cause i was getting lonely

Oh oh, I was lonely

 a'baby without you.

I always had hid it,

 pity needed you to hold me.

Oh boy, you should have known me,

 I didn't know how to.

PLAY TWICE x2

Gone are the days of magic

those times were cool.

I tried to make love not hate.

 What was I to do?

Oh, the beats were playing,

we danced all night.

We were kissing

 till dark turned to light.

Chorus

]

MAIN RIFF at the same time as the chorus

Ah-oooo

 Rolling back the rivers in time.

 Can't wait. Got to see his face somewhere.

Ah-oooo

Holding back the minutes gone by.

Someday, got to see his face oh yeah.

There's a feeling in my soul

 that sets my heart alive.

I tell you there's a feeling in my soul

 that tells me that you're all mine.

There's an arrow in my heart

 just hit at seventeen.

I tell you there's a shadow in my heart

 that tells of what could have been.

Chorus

Doesn't really matter

 I felt nothing better at all.

Ho-hoo

Sending him a letter

 I know I won't regret it all.

Ho-hoo

Doesn't really matter

a miracle could happen for sure.

Ho-hoo

I'd rather wait for ever

baby never have it at all.

Chorus
