Am     F/A     G             E/G#
Is it another day is there another
Am             F/A     G              E/G#
Way nothing at all to say it's just another
 F           D
Day without you
      F           D
Long way without you
Am          F/A      G                E/G#
Should I be holding back should I be holding
Am              F/A      G                  E/G#
Out should I be keeping quiet when I could scream
and
 F           D
Shout about you
     F         D
All out about you
 G               C     Am        F
You, you give me everything but love
         G
Shall I hold on, has it all gone

Chorus:
C           F/C    C
This is the way it is
            G/C            C
This is the point of no return
           F/C   C
We get the messages
              G/C            C
Still we have everything to learn
            F/C    C
Telling it like it is
             F        D/F# G
This is the point of no return

Am I the last to learn? Am I the last to know?
Is it a parting shot? Is it the final
blow without you?
To go without you?
You, you give me everything but love
Shall I hold on? Has it all gone?

Chorus

G#         A#/G#            Gm
Always too long, always too far
           Cm         A#      G#
Always too strong for me to defend
        A#             C
Is it a fade, is it an end

G                C     Am        F
You, you give me everything but love
         G
Shall I hold on, has it all gone

Chorus - x2

D           G/D    D
This is the way it is
    A/D           D    G/D D
The point of no return
    A/D           D    G/D D
The point of no return
    A/D           D    G/D D
The point of no return
    A/D           D    G/D D
The point of no return
    A/D           D    G/D D
The point of no return
    A/D           D
The point of no return
