verse 1 
                   G                  C 
We have to talk, although it won't be easy 
    F                C              G 
And seeing you right now is hard to do 
     C               G             C 
It's no good sitting gazing at the table 
   F       C      G                  C 
We have to talk before this night is through 


verse 2 
                       G            C 
I could have done with longer to forget you 
    F                      C               G 
For time will show there's nothing left to say 
    C               G              C 
You always put such faith in conversation 
   F       C           G                C  
We have to talk 'cause there's no other way 

G 
How could we have come to this 
   F                  C 
To break each other's heart 
G 
Friends from that first stolen kiss 
F         N.C     G      Am7  G 
Strangers when we part 

verse 3 
   C                G               C 
We used to talk all night without a reason 
     F                     C          G 
When thoughts had wings we didn't hesitate 
    C                  G             C 
Now time has flown and left us in confusion 
   F       C      G                C 
We have to talk before it gets too late

How could we have come to this

verse 4 
   C              G              C 
So look me in the eye before you answer 
F           C             G 
Do I stick around or do I walk? 
       C                G             C 
Though words have never made a bit of difference 
Before we say goodnight, we have to talk 
  F       C       G                 C 
Before we say goodnight, we have to talk
