AmG
Let me go I'm only letting you down
CF
I 've got nothing to say to you now
AmG
I lose the feelings that are weighing me down
CF
When I'm safe
AmG
It's turning morning all the birds sing
CF
I'm not complicating anything
AmG
I'll have another then I'll go to bed
CF
But I'll dream of you
Am
Cause it's almost over
G
And it's almost gone
CF
And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming
AmG
Sweet confusion, honey
CFG
Sweet illusion coming down
GDm
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
(Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am F C G : Intro part)
AmG
You and I used to shine like a jewel
CF
But times been nothing to us but cruel
AmG
So play it out and never played the fool
CF
Cause you'll lose every time
AmG
We were nothing, we were only the past
CF
Hard times like that don't last
AmG
I've been forgiven, I've been surpassed
C
By my heart
F
Have you?
Am
Cause it's almost over
G
And it's almost gone
CF
And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming
AmG
Sweet confusion, honey
CFAm
Sweet illusion coming down
G
And I ain't got nothing but love for you?
DmFCG
Love for you I can't use
DmFG
And lonely nights multiplied by the blues
G
That I can't resolve
AmG
You never knew me but I did my best
CF
I'm just lonely inside I guess
AmG
You gave me everything you really tried
C
Thanks....
AmG
If we were nothing and we're only the past
CF
Then I'm just living in a dream I guess
AmGC
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you
(repeat chorus)
