[Gm] It's five [D] o'clock [E] this morning and [C] the sun is on the [G] rise
There's frosting [D] on [E] the [Em] windowpane [Am] and sorrow in [D] your eyes
[G] The [D] stars are fading [Em] quietly, [C] night is nearly [G] gone
The soul you [D] turn [Em] away from me and [Am] tears begin to [D] come
And it's goodbye [Am] [D] again
[G] I'm sorry [D] to be [Em] leaving you, [Am] goodbye [D]
again
[G] As if [D] you didn't [Em] know, it's [Am] goodbye [D] again
[G] And I [D] wish you [Em] could tell me, [Am] why do we always fight when I have [D] to go?
[G] It seems [D] a shame [E] to leave you now, [C] your days are soft [G] and warm
I long [D] to lay [Em] me down again [Am] and hold you in [D] my [G] arms
I [D] long to kiss [E] the tears [G] away [C] and give you back [G] the smile
But other [D] voices [Em] beckon me [Am] and for a little [D]
while
It's [Am] goodbye [D] again
[G] I'm sorry [D] to [G] be leaving [Am] you, goodbye [D]
again
[G] As [D] if you didn't [Em] know, it's [Am] goodbye [D] again
[G] And I [D] wish you [Em] could tell me, [Am] why do we always fight when I [D] have to go?
I have [Bm] to go see [C] some friends of mine, [G] some [D] that I [Em] don't know
[Am] Some who aren't [D] familiar with my [G] [E]
[D] name
[Bm] It's something that's [C] inside of me, [G] not [D] hard to [Em] understand
[Am] It's anyone who'll listen to [D] me sing
[G] And [D] if your [E] hours are empty now, [C] who am I to [G] blame?
You'd think [D] if I [Em] were always here, [Am] our love would be [D] the same
[G] [D] As it is, [Em] the time we have [C] is worth the [G] time alone
Lying [D] by your [Em] side, the greatest [Am] peace [D] I've ever known
But [Am] it's goodbye [D]
again
[G] I'm [D] sorry to [Em] be leaving you, [Am] goodbye [D]
again
[G] As [D] if you didn't [Em] know, it's [Am] goodbye [D]
again
[G] And I [D] wish you [Em] could tell me, [Am] why do we always fight when I [D] have to go?
