F                      A#sus4 A#
When it started we had high  hopes
       A#m           G#
Now my back's on the line
                  C
My back's on the ropes
F                       A#sus4 A#
When it started we were alright
     A#m           G#                   C
But night makes a fool of us in the daylight

Then we were dying of frustration
Saying "Lord lead me not into temptation"
But it’s not easy when she turns you on
Sin, stay gone

Chorus:
F         G#              A#        F
If you'll only, if you'll only say yes
             F7               F/E
Whether you will's anybody's guess
F          G#             A#       F
God, only God knows I'm trying my best
         C#                    C       F
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness

So up they picked me by the big toe
I was held from the rooftop then they let go
Dizzily screaming "Let the windows down!"
As I crawl to the ground

Chorus:
If you'd only if you'd only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess
God, only God knows she won't let me rest
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness
I've become so tired of this loneliness
