F#m       A           G#m           E 
And there could be at any moment a change 
F#m       A              E 
And if perhaps to put us down 
F#m     A             G#m            E 
I won't act like I've seen something strange 
F#m     A                 E 
Maybe I just won't make a sound 
A            G           E 
But when the door closes before my eyes 
A   G         E 
Oh, oh I will cry 
E                    F#m 
Just to know you are going to stay 
A   B      E 
Out on the side 
F#m        A          G#m      E 
No I'm not looking to find any holes 
F#m         A              E 
>From what I think has been denied 
F#m            A          G#m          E 
That's not the feeling of love when it flows 
F#m      A                  E 
I hope I can lose that much pride 
A         G               E 
And if it should come the time when we lose 
A    G            E 
No I won't try to hide 
E                       F#m 
I'll just watch other's love as it goes 
A   B      E  
Out on the side 
F#m    A              G#m             E                   
I have fallen through black nights it seems 
F#m      A                E 
With the times that I've lied 
F#m      A                     G#m        E 
And I've watched your thoughts stray into dreams 
F#m         A      E 
When you're not satisfied 
A            G           E 
But when the door closes before my eyes 
A      G      E 
Oh, oh I will cry 
E                     F#m 
Just to know you are going to stay 
A   B      E  
Out on the side 
A   G       E    F#m  A  G#m  E  F#m  A   E 
Out on the side
