[Dm] [Bb]
[Dm] [Am] [C]
[Dm] [Bb]
[Dm] [Am]
[Dm] [Gm] [Bb]
[Am] [Dm]
Time can never [Bb] mend
The careless whispers [Am] of a [A] good [Dm] friend
To the heart and mind, [Bb] vigor is his kind
[Dm] There's no comfort in the truth, [Am] pain is the [Dm] heart
[Bb]
[Am]
[Dm] Should've known better, [Bb] yeah
[Am] [Dm]
Oh, [Bb]
[Dm] [F]
[Dm] [Gm] I
[Bb] [Am] [F]
[Dm] feel so [Gm] unsure
As [Bb]
I take your hand and leap [Am] through the dance [Dm] floor
As the music dies, [Gm] sleep will [Am] arise
[Bb] Calls to mind a silver screen, [Am] dark, it's sad, [Dm] goodbye
I'm never gonna dance again, [Gm] guilty feeling
Oh, [Bb]
oh, oh, don't you pretend
[Am] I know you're not a fool
[Dm] Should've known better, defeated then
[Gm] Wasted chance that I [Bb] could give up
So I'm never gonna dance again
[Am] The way I did [F] with
[Dm] you For [Gm] [Bb] us
[Dm] Time [Am] [Dm] [Am]
[Dm] can never [Gm] [Bb] mend
[Gm]
[Bb] The careless whispers [Am] of the good [Dm] times
The blood and my [Bb] evil disguise
[Am]
[Bb] There's no comfort in the truth
[Am] Pain is the holy one
[Dm] I'm never gonna dance again
[Bb] Guilty feet have got [Am] no [Bb] rhythm
But it's easy to pretend
[Am] I know you're not a fool
[Dm] Should've known better
Should've known better
[Bb] Wasted chance that I could [C] be given
[Bb] So I'm never gonna dance again
[Am] The way I did with you
[Dm] Never [Gm] [Dm]
without [Bb] your [Am] love
[F]
[Dm] [Gm]
[Bb] [Am] [Am]
[Dm] Tonight the music seems so loud
[Bb] I wish that we [Dm] could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this [Am] way
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to [Dm] say
We could have been together
[Gm] We could have lived this [Am] dance forever [Bb] But now
[Am]
[Dm] I'm never gonna dance [Bb] again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
But it's easy to [Am] pretend
I know you're not a fool
[Dm] Should've known better
Like to cheat a [Bb] friend
The wasted chance that I could be [Bb] given
So I'm never gonna dance [Am] again
The way I danced with
[Dm] you
[Bb]
Now [Am] [F]
[Dm] [Bb]
that you're gone
[C] [Am]
[Dm] Now that you're [Gm] gone
Now that you're gone
I did so wrong So [Bb] wrong
I had to [Am] leave you
[Dm] [Bb] [Gm]
[Bb] [Am]
[Dm] [Em] [Bb] [C]
[Bb] [Am]
[Dm] [Bb]
[Am]
