Intro:  A  G  G  A

       D            A        G
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait
       D           A       G
It's a chance I'll take oh yeah
       D            A        G
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait
    D  A  G
For the time


       D            A        G
In the spring I'll watch my step
       D            A        G
While the night-time passes by
       D            A        G
When a smile suits me all alone
   D   A  G
I'll be fine


(G)                 A
There's got to be a better song to sing
         G
Before I hang upon your shoulder
            G                          A
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
                    D              A
There's got to be a better song to sing
             G
That makes a lonely one less cold oh
         G                          A
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry

       D            A        G
Watching friends playing in the dirt
       D        A        G
Feeling hard but feeling hurt
       D            A        G
By the sadness that wastes my time
   D   A  G
It's a crime


       D            A        G
Counting acts which I must add
       D     A        G
To collect sad memories
       D       A        G
From a past I'd soon forget
   D   A  G
Swap or leave


(G)                 A
There's got to be a better song to sing
         G
Before I hang upon your shoulder
            G                          A
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
                    D              A
There's got to be a better song to sing
             G
That makes a lonely one less cold oh
         G                          A
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry

       D            A        G
At the gate I'll wave goodbye
       D        A        G
To the friends that were my lies
       D        A        G
And I'll see them off at dawn
   D   A  G
Feeling wise
   D   A  G
Feeling wise
   D   A  G
Feeling wise

D  A  G
