When you’re not in my sight
Then everything, just fades from view

Chorus:
The mystery of love belongs to you
The mystery of love belongs to you

Tell me, have you changed your mind?
Am I a fool, because of you?

Tell me, do we still have time?
To make this wrong somehow be right

Chorus:
The mystery of love belongs to you
The mystery of love belongs to you

Bridge: Em C

Show me sweetness, show me summer skies
Show me how to make this wrong seem right
Show me laughter in your pale blue eyes
Tell me, tell me have you changed your mind?

Tabbed by: KM

It’s my first chord/tab, so be nice to me if it isn’t spot on! This cover of
the Beatles song is good if you have a soprano voice, it’s just a bit higher
than the original.

VERSE 1:

Of all the love I have won or have lost

There is one love I should never have crossed.

He was a boy in a million, my friend

I should have known he would win in the end.

CHORUS:

I’m a loser

And I lost someone who’s near to me.

I’m a loser

And I’m not what I appear to be.

VERSE 2:

Although I laugh and I act like a clown,

Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown.

My tears are falling like rain from the sky,

Is it for him or myself that I cry?

CHORUS:

I’m a loser

And I lost someone who’s near to me.

I’m a loser

And I’m not what I appear to be.

SOLO-y PART (Verse chords):

CHORUS:

I’m a loser

And I lost someone who’s near to me.

I’m a loser

And I’m not what I appear to be.

VERSE 3:

What have I done to deserve such a fate?

I realize I have left it too late

And so it’s true pride comes before a fall,

I’m telling you so that you won’t lose all.

CHORUS:

I’m a loser

And I lost someone who’s near to me.

I’m a loser

And I’m not what I appear to be.

I’m a loser

End on D

If alcohol could take me there.
I’d take a shot a minute
And be there by the hour.
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV.

In a car taking a back seat
Staring out the window
Thinking about danger.
Playing in a wrong chord
Fighting but I’m not free.
Talking on the telephone
Talking about you and me.

If Jesus Christ could take me here
I’d fall dawn on my knees,
Have no questions to His answers.
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV.

Alcohol could take me there.
I’d take a shot a minute
And be there by the hour.
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV.

And if I die gaining my senses
Wake up in a hotel
Staring at the ceiling.

#1. (Capo 1st fret)
Close your eyes, close the door.
You don’t have to..worry, anymore.
Cause I’ll…be your….baby tonight.

#2.
Shut the lights, shut the shade.
You don’t have to..be afraid.
Cause I’ll…be your…baby tonight.

CHORUS:
Well, that Mockingbird is gonna sail away,
we’re gonna forget it.
That big fat moon is gonna shine like a spoon,
we’re gonna let it…you won’t regret it.

#3.
Kick your shoes off..do not fear.
Bring that bottle..over here.
Cause I’ll…be your…baby tonight.

CHORUS:

REPEAT#3.

It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.

Smiling faces I can see, but not for me, I sit and watch as tears go by.
My riches can’t buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All I hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.

Instrumental: C D F G C D

It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things I used to do, they think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
