Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4
            [Intro]

D  Csus2  Em


[Verse 1]

D
Looking out the door
                             Csus2   Em
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
D
Parading in a wake of sad relations
                    Csus2   Em
As their shoes fill up with water
Em/C#                     F#aug         F#aug/E
           And maybe I'm too young
   Bm           Dsus4 D  D/A      G6
To keep good love from going wrong
       D                  Csus2  Em
But tonight, you're on my mind so
You'll never know

D
Broken down and hungry for your love
       Csus2    Em
With no way to feed it
  D
Where are you tonight?
                   Csus2   Em
Child you know how much I need it
Em/C#                     F#aug       F#aug/E
           Too young to hold on
        Bm   Dsus4 D  D/A            G6      F#
And too old to just break free and run


[Chorus]

Bm                      Em7*
   Sometimes a man gets carried away,
        Bm                                 Em7*
When he feels like he should be having his fun
             Bm                            Em7*
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
C9
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
       Em        Fdim
He has    no-one...
D/F#                      Gm6
      So I'll wait for you... and I'll burn
A6                                G6
      Oh, will I ever see your sweet return?
Aadd9/C#
      Oh, will I ever learn?
   Cmaj7/E    D6     Aadd9/C#   Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9/F#  Em  Emadd9  Em7
      Oh,     oh,     oh, lover, you should've come over

                    D           Csus2   Em
'Cause it's not too late


[Verse 2]

D
Lonely is the room, the bed is made
                Csus2    Em
The open window lets the rain in
D
Burning in the corner is the only one
              Csus2    Em
who dreams he had you with him
Em/C#            F#aug  F#aug/E      Bm    Dsus4 D
          My body turns and yearns for a sleep
     D/A        G6
That won't ever come
G#dim      D/A
It's never over,
                 D     Csus2    Em      Emadd9  Em7  Em
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
           D/A
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles
       D        Csus2   Em         Emadd9  Em7
When I slept so soft against her...
Em         D/A
It's never over,
                     D         Csus2   Em       Emadd9  Em7
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
Em         D/A
It's never over, she's the tear
             D       Csus2   Em    Emadd9  Em7
That hangs inside my soul forever
Em/C#                       F#aug    F#aug/E
           Maybe I'm just too young
   Bm      Dsus4 D   D/A        G      Em/G
To keep good love from going wrong


[Solo]

D/F#  Gm6  A6  G6  Aadd9/C#

Cmaj7/E  D6  Aadd9/C# Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9/F#      Em    Emadd9  Em7
Oh.......Oh..Oh........Lover you should've come over...

D/F#                     Gm6
 I feel too young to hold on
    A6                             G6
I'm much too hold to break free and run
    Aadd9/C#
Too deaf, dumb and blind
                  Cmaj7/E    D6
To see the damage I've done

     Aadd9/C#  Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9/F#  Em   Emadd9  Em7  Em
Sweeeeet looover, you should've come over

Oh, love I'm waiting for you
Lover, you should've come over
                   D        Csus2  Emadd9
Cause it's not too late

Note : the progression, at the end of the chorus: Aadd9/C#, Aadd9/B, Aadd9,
       Aadd9/F# isn't very close to the original. Send me your corrections.
