Am G
Let me go I'm only letting you down
C F
I 've got nothing to say to you now
Am G
I lose the feelings that are weighing me down
C F
When I'm safe
Am G
It's turning morning all the birds sing
C F
I'm not complicating anything
Am G
I'll have another then I'll go to bed
C F
But I'll dream of you
Am
Cause it's almost over
G
And it's almost gone
C F
And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming
Am G
Sweet confusion, honey
C F G
Sweet illusion coming down
G Dm
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
(Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am F C G : Intro part)
Am G
You and I used to shine like a jewel
C F
But times been nothing to us but cruel
Am G
So play it out and never played the fool
C F
Cause you'll lose every time
Am G
We were nothing, we were only the past
C F
Hard times like that don't last
Am G
I've been forgiven, I've been surpassed
C
By my heart
F
Have you?
Am
Cause it's almost over
G
And it's almost gone
C F
And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming
Am G
Sweet confusion, honey
C F Am
Sweet illusion coming down
G
And I ain't got nothing but love for you�
Dm F C G
Love for you I can't use
Dm F G
And lonely nights multiplied by the blues
G
That I can't resolve
Am G
You never knew me but I did my best
C F
I'm just lonely inside I guess
Am G
You gave me everything you really tried
C
Thanks....
Am G
If we were nothing and we're only the past
C F
Then I'm just living in a dream I guess
Am G C
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you
(repeat chorus)
