Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

(by Thomas Young)

Let me go I'm only letting you down

I 've got nothing to say to you now

I lose the feelings that are weighing me down

 When I'm safe

It's turning morning all the birds sing

I'm not complicating anything

I'll have another then I'll go to bed

 But I'll dream of you

Cause it's almost over

And it's almost gone

 And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming

Sweet confusion, honey

Sweet illusion coming down

And I ain't got nothing but love for you now

 ( : Intro part)

You and I used to shine like a jewel

But times been nothing to us but cruel

So play it out and never played the fool

Cause you'll lose every time

We were nothing, we were only the past

Hard times like that don't last

I've been forgiven, I've been surpassed

By my heart

Have you?

Cause it's almost over

And it's almost gone

 And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming

Sweet confusion, honey

Sweet illusion coming down

And I ain't got nothing but love for you

Love for you I can't use

 And lonely nights multiplied by the blues

 That I can't resolve

You never knew me but I did my best

I'm just lonely inside I guess

You gave me everything you really tried

Thanks....

If we were nothing and we're only the past

Then I'm just living in a dream I guess

A long black dream that takes me down the river to you

(repeat chorus)
