Lyrics
This Story Ends C F C You don't want to see me cry Am Em F C Yet you don't seem to care if I live or die F C F C Don't be shocked I see your gun is cocked G G7 And we know in which direction the bullets'll fly G D7 G I don't want to be just friends D7 G It's enough to drive me round the bend D7 G D7 G Hi di ho, the way things go Bm A Am We all know the way this story ends Standing in the spotlights’s glare It isn’t right it isn’t fair Woe is woe as high turns low My heart is screaming as it tears Why should love just pass me by I hate to kiss the dream goodbye You have to shout when luck runs out We all know the way this story ends G Started so good, it all started out fine Bm A Couldn't believe that you would be mine Em A EmA But you know what they say, if something's too good to be true A G F#m Em There's a pile of shit's about to fall on you C F C They say it's better to have loved and lost Am Em F C But they're not the ones who're counting the cost Am Em F C It's not their dreams being beaten and tossed Am Em F C Green shoots withering in the frost Am Em F C Curling up in the icy blast Am Em F C No more future only the past Am Em F C Knowing that last kiss was really the last G D7 G They don't have to take it all again Bm A We all know the way that story ends...
