G    Bm    C          D
Hey there lookin' at me
 G    Bm  C          D
Tell me what do you see
G        Bm      C         D     G  Bm C D
But you quickly turn your head away
G       Bm       C            D
Try to find the words I could use
G               Bm         C          D
Don't have the courage to come up to you
G   Bm        C      D       G  Bm C D
My chance is looking a bit grey

Chorus:
Em         D
Staring across the room
Em        D
Are you leaving soon?
Em      D             C
I just need a little time

What is it that drives me mad?
Girls like you that I never had
What is it about you that I adore?
What makes me feel so much pain?
That makes me go so insane
What is it about you that I adore?

Chorus

  G
Why did you have to leave so soon?
                           D
Why did you have to walk away?

Oh, well, it happened again
She walked away with her boyfriend
Maybe we'll meet again someday
Maybe we'll meet again someday
Maybe we'll meet again someday
Someday! Go!
