I'm a man with so much tension

D/E           A/E

Far too many sins to mention

C/E                B/E        E     E/D

She don't have to take it anymore

But since she said she's coming home

Still I will chose to live

In the complicated world

That we shared for so long

       D#dim7           E

Good or bad, right or wrong

[Verse 3]

E         B/E

And it occured to me

     D/E           A/E

While I set up my Christmas tree

    C/E            B/E           E      E/D

She never missed a cue or lost a beat

C            B

Everytime I lost the meter

A7sus              A

There she was when I would need her

Dm7                G7               C     C/Bb

Greeting me with footsteps in the street

  She'd find the perfect moment
