Daylight comes with such surprising speed
Yesterday You talked of love and now you want to leave
Dont expect me to stand in your way
I am powerless to alter any action you might take

But I won’t take the Blame
I was not thet one who played the joker in this game
I am not the one who feels nothing anymore

So if you walk out that door I won’t take the blame

As I looked at the girl I once adored
You tell me that I hold you back You tell me that you’re bored
So Like a pair of clowns we stand around an fight
But why don’t you get it over with and walk out of my life

Tuning: Standard

Here’s the chord version of this song.

INTRO: D Em7 F#m7 Em7

VERSE 1:
With the sweet drip of every raindrop
Time brings you closer to me
And with each new sign at every train-stop
Another hour without you is consigned to history
And with each tick of my alarm clock
I get crazy for the days to get to you
When I can hold you and kiss you and have you
Instead of staring at some photo like a fool

PRE-CHORUS:
But as day turns to night theres this hopelessness to fight
When I think that I might not make it thro[D/A]ugh

CHORUS:
But honey sometimes I just have to say your name
To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same
And sometimes when Im blue, I know just what to do
To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name

INTRO

VERSE 2:
So this morning I picked up the paper
In the useless descent of the rain
While partners in heartbreak the whole world over
Lie and cheat just the same
And the headlines proclaim everything has changed
Love cant save you now
As each little motion of my writswatch
Holds up my faith somehow
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/del_amitri/sometimes_i_just_have_to_say_your_name_crd.html )
PRE-CHORUS:
But as day turns to night theres this hopelessness to fight
When I think that I might not make it thro[D/A]ugh

CHORUS:
But honey sometimes I just have to say your name
To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same
And sometimes when Im blue, I know just what to do
To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name

BRIDGE:
When Ive used up all my patience
When your letters have been read twenty times through
I can drink all the wine in this place of mine
But it aint no replacement, it aint no replacement for
you………..……

CHORUS:
‘Cause honey sometimes I just have to say your name
To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same
And sometimes when Im blue, I know just what to do
To keep the blues at bay you (know I only have to say)
You know I only have to say your name….ooooh

OUTRO:
hooo… Oooh hooo.. You know I
Only have to say your name I only have to say your name
I only have to say your name, say your name, say your name,
Oooh yay yah…ay yah, ooooh ay yah, I only have, only have to
say your name, say your name, say your name, Wah wah wah wah wah
Whoa yah, whoa yah, whoa yah I only have to

Look around your world, pretty baby.
Is it everything you hoped it would be?
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me.

Look into your heart, pretty baby
Is it aching with some nameless need?
Is there something wrong and you can’t put your finger on it?
Right then, roll to me

And I don’t think I have ever seen a soul so in despair
So, if you want to talk the night through
Guess who will be there?

So, don’t try to deny it, pretty baby,
You’ve been down so long you can hardly see
When the engine’s stalled, it won’t stop runnin’
It’s the right time to roll to me

So look around your world, pretty baby
Is it everything you hoped it would be?
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me
The right time to roll to me.
The right time to roll to me
