and so it is 
just like you said it would be 
life goes easy on me 
most of the time 
 
and so it is 
the shorter story 
no love no glory 
no hero in her skies 
 
A Abm F# E A B A B (barré) 
i can't take my eyes off of you  
 
and so it is 
just like you said it should be 
we'll both forget the breeze 
most of the time 
 
and so it is 
the colder water 
the blower's daughter 
the pupil in denial 
 
A Abm F# E A B A B  
i can't take my eyes off of you 
 
 
F# B Abm Db Eb 
did I say that I loathe you? 
did I say that I want to 
leave it all behind? 
 
A Abm F# E A B A B  
i can't take my mind off of you 
 
my mind 
'til I find somebody new
