Em                             Am     C      
You don't have to sneak in the door 
                      G 
Just come on into the room 
                                   C 
I've been lying in our bed, in the dark all alone 
              Am                             D   Dsus2 D   
And I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you 
G                         Am    C 
There's been no reason to move 
                        Em 
It's been as still as a tomb 
  G                  C 
I needed you, oh, so badly tonight 
            Am                       D  Dsus2  D  Dsus4  D 
But I guess you had better things to do 
  
  
G                               Am              C 
I should have known that it was coming to this 
                     Em 
But I must have been blind 
          G                        C 
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes 
        Am                         D 
And you still got his eyes on your mind 
G                             Am             C 
You swore you'd be with me at seven o'clock 
                      Em 
Now it's a quarter to three 
          G                   C 
Well, whatever you got and whoever it was 
  Am                             G 
I guess you couldn't get it from me 
                            C 
No, whatever you got and whoever it was 
  Am                 D           G     D    G 
I guess you couldn't get it from me 
  
  
                Em       G 
I know that you love me 
                   Em   
There's no need to talk 
C                      Am                 D 
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof 
          G                   Em    G 
And there are no lies on your body 
                 Em    C 
So take off your dress 
    D                         G        D   G 
Oh, I just want to get at the truth 
                Em       G 
I know that you love me 
                   Em   
There's no need to talk 
C                      Am                 D 
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof 
          G                   Em    G 
And there are no lies on your body 
                 Em    C 
So take off your dress 
    D                         G        
Oh, I just want to get at the truth 
  
  
              C                     G 
And there are so many things that I just got to know 
            Em 
Now tell me who! 
            D 
You tell me where! 
            C 
You tell me when! 
    G 
But don't tell me now 
        D                  C        
I don't need any answers tonight 
   G                      D 
I just need some love, so turn out the light 
            C                 G 
And I'll be left in the dark again 
                          D 
I just need some love, so turn out the light 
            C                 G 
And I'll be left in the dark again 
                          D 
I just need some love, so turn out the light 
            C                 G 
And I'll be left in the dark again 
    Em               C 
No, no, in the dark again
