[Verse 1]
C#                                      Bbm
Lately I have had this strangest feeling,
Ebm                                     Ab
With no vivid reasons here to find. 
Ebm                                     Ab            
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging, 
                C#
round my mind... 
C#                                      Bbm
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume, 
Ebm                                     Ab
With you say, "No special place to go" 
Ebm                                     Ab     
But when I ask will you be coming back soon, 
                C#                C#6
You don't know, never know. 
[Chorus]
F#                                         
Well, I'm a man of many wishes,  
F#m
I hope my premonition misses, 
Fm                                  Bb                 
but what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide, 
            Ebm  Fm  F#m  G#   C#
cause they always start to cry. 
Bb          Ebm  Fm  F#m  G#   C#
Cause it's time could mean goodbye. 
[Verse 2]
C#                                      Bbm
Lately I've been staring in the mirror, 
Ebm                                     Ab
very slowly picking me apart. 
Ebm                                     Ab
Tryin' to tell myself I have no reason, 
                C#
with your heart. 
C#                                      Bbm
Just the other night while you were sleeping, 
Ebm                                     Ab
I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name. 
Ebm                                     Ab
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping, 
                C#                 C#6       
you just say, nothing's changed.
[Chorus 2]
B                                           
Well, I'm a man of many wishes,  
Bm
I hope my premonition misses, 
Bbm                                 Eb      
but what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide, 
            Abm  Bbm  Bm  C#  F#
cause they always start to cry. 
Eb          Abm  Bbm  Bm  C#  F#
Cause it's time could mean goodbye.
