Something so sacred

You can't please everyone all the time

Tuesday Night - 7:30, I hear a voice on the telephone
G#m A B
Doing fine, then it hits me
G#m A B
The voice that I am hearing means you're not alone

I thought it would be easy but it's not
D F#m
And now I would give all that I've got

And now that I would give you my heart, it's too little too late
G#m A B
2 more weeks - I start to wonder
G#m A B
If what I'm missing's really worth these tears
G#m A B
What's the point, you found another
G#m A B
And I just keep on talking but you just can't hear
D C#m
You swore you'd wait forever and a day
D F#m
I never thought I live to hear you say
G#m A B
That it's too li - ttle, too late

No going back to the start

No going back to the start

When there was nothing to do
Must've been waiting for someone, baby
Bm F#m E
Now I can see - I was waiting for you
D E
I'd give up my sight just to see you
A D
I'd beg, I would borrow and steal
Bm A
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you

There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

Driving myself to distraction

There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow

There's no place that I'd rather be
Bm A
This life without you would be hollow
E
This love is a gift, and you gave it to me
D E
All that I am, you have made me
A D
And baby, I know that it's true
Bm A
I'd give it all up in a heartbeat

Just to spend every moment with you

There's no place that I wouldn't follow
