Meat Loaf : Read 'em and weep (Jim Steinman)
Db6 Db Bbm Bbm7 Gb Gbmaj7 Ab
Db6 Db Bbm Bbm7 Gb Gbmaj7 Ab
Db Bbm Gb Ab
I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
Db Bbm
I thought I'd leave you with a letter or firey speech
Gb Ab
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play
Db
And I've been dying for hours
Bbm Gb Ab
Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
Db Bbm
I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away
Gb Ab
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Fm Ebm
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
Db Bbm
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
Gb Ebm
We started out with a bang and at the top of the world
E Ab
Now the guns are exhausted, the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank
Db
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
(Db) Fm Gb Ebm
Oh, it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
Bbm Ab Db
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh, it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Db6 Db Bbm Bbm7 Gb Gbmaj7 Ab
Db6 Db Bbm Bbm7 Gb Gbmaj7 Ab
Db Bbm Gb Ab
I've been whispering softly trying to build a cry up into a scream
Db Bbm
We let the past slip away and put the future on hold
Gb Ab Ab7
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream
Db
And I've been dying for hours
Bbm Gb Ab
Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
Db Bbm
I'd like to know why you faded and you threw it away
Gb Ab
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Fm Ebm
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
Db Bbm
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
Gb Ebm
But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark
E Ab
The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank
Db
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
(Db) Fm Gb Ebm
Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
Bbm Ab Db
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Oh, it's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
Oh, it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Gb Ab Db
Read 'em and weep - For all the hours we'll be spending alone
Gb Ab Db
Read 'em and weep - For the dreams we'll ignore
Gb Fm Bbm
Running silent and deep - And all those promises we promised to keep
Ebm Ab Db
They won't be kept anymore
Read 'em and weep - For the magic that our bodies had made
Read 'em and weep - For the blood that we lost
Running silent and deep - And all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
Ooh, whatever the cost
Gb Ab Db
Read 'em and weep - For the memories still alive in the bed
Gb Ab Db
Read 'em and weep - For the lies we believed
Gb Fm Bbm
Running silent and deep - And all the things that we'll have never been said
Bbm Ab Db
Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep
Bbm Ab
C'mon and look at me and read 'em
Db
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
(Db) Fm Gb Ebm
It's there in my eyes, it's all I can say
Bbm Ab Db
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
(Chords:)
