D
You used to write me letters,
                              G
you'd send me records in the post,
G
Like 'Born To Run', by Springsteen,
                               D
you knew the songs I love the most,
D
But with the sweetest sorrow,
                             G
I told you some things just won't last,
G
For you and I are passed our dancing days.

Chorus:
A           Bm        G
I said it's not your fault, I lied,
   A             Bm       G
and I don't have time to watch you cry,
A                Bm  G       A           Bm   G
And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai.

I tried to treat you gently
I said I'd always be your friend
But now your hands are empty
You don't know how to let this end

So with the sweetest sorrow
Let me spell it out for you
You and I are past our dancing days

Chorus

Bm
Did you think I wouldn't notice
F#m                      G
As if I wouldn't bat an eye
G
Did you think that you could hide it
G
All of your violent delights

Bm
Did you think I wouldn't notice
F#m                      G
As if I wouldn't bat an eye
G
Did you think that you could hide it
G
All of your violent delights

Chorus - x2
