   Em7                        D/E 
An urgent call in the dead of night 
   C/E                 D/E 
A voice that whispers "Now" 
Em7                               D/E 
    A voice that trembles like a winter leaf 
C             D       Bsus4 
   Before it hits the ground 
Em                           D/E 
   She leaves a crack in the bedroom door 
   C/E           D/E 
To slip the wire through 
 Em                           D/E 
    Her husband sleeping in a empty bed 
    C         D   Bsus4  B 
No witness to the truth 

Am                     Em 
   It's a oneway conversation 
  F      C        D 
I try to tell her no 
Am                         G/B 
    But it's a hopeless situation 
  Csus4              Dsus4 
I just can't let her go 

Chorus 

G                      G  D/G 
  And here she is another     desperate night 
D/G  C/G                    C/G   G     D/G  G 
         In the arms of the other man 
         G   D/G                  Eb   Fadd9 
Another day      in a double life 
G                 G  D/G 
   Every moment that she holds me tight 
D/G  C/G                      C/G   G 
         I know just where I stand

      Em                  D/E 
She leaves my room like a criminal 
    C/E             D/E 
To beat the morning light 
Em                         D/E 
    Rehearsing ever little alibi 
C/E  N.C. 
         To get it water tight 

Em                       D/E 
   There's a note on the dresser top 
          C/E             D/E 
It's the same old classic line 
Em                              D/E 
    She says she's leaving him 
      C     D           Bsus4 
It's just a question of time

'Cause I just can't let her go
