Something told me it was over (yeah-eah-eah-eah)

sittin' there thinking of your kiss and your warm 
  A
embrace, yeah.
A                          Gbm          Bm
when the reflection in the glass that I held to my
                Gbm          Bm
lips now, babe (yeah-eah-eah-eah) revealed the tears 
         E     A
that was on my face, yeah.

boy.................than to see you walk away from 
A
me, yeah.
     Gbm   A                               Bm
Oooo-oooo, baby, baby, baby..I'd rather be blind..(Fade.)
