Lover, You should've come over

Looking out the door

I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners

Parading in a wake of sad relations

As their shoes fill up with water

And maybe I'm too young

To keep good love from going wrong

But tonight, you're on my mind so

You'll never know

I'm broken down and angry for your love

With no way to feed it

Where are you tonight?

Child you know how much I need it.

Too young to hold on

And too hold 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

Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,

Em Fdim He has no-one...

So I'll wait for you...And I'll burn

Oh will I ever see your sweet return?

Oh, will I ever learn?

Oh, oh, oh, lover, you should've come over

'Cause it's not too late.

Lonely is the room, the bed is made

The open window lets the rain in

Burning in the corner is the only one

Who dreams he had you with him

My body turns and yearns for a sleep

That won't ever come

It's never over,

D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7 Em] My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder

It's never over, all my riches for her smiles

D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7] When I slept so soft against her...

It's never over,

D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7] All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter

It's never over, she's the tear

D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7] That hangs inside my soul forever

Maybe I'm just too young

To keep good love from going wrong

(SOLO)

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

I'm much too hold to break free and run

Too deef, dumb and blind

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
