Red like fire was the day I met you. I tell you now, there are no
regrets. c#                                    B                    F#
In this room there are many memories. Some are good, some I try to
forget. B                        F#    g#   B                    F# I
thought we were the chosen ones, who were supposed to fly.

c#                   B           F#                            c#
We're very much the same, you and I. The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.

                      c#
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time.  The sweet hello, the sad
goodbye. 
                       B                         F#
When love lies in our hands, we seem to run and hide.

And I can't help but wonder why. The sweet hello, the sad goodbye

     g#                                 E
My heart was like a runaway train, babe. I don't believe I've ever
felt more alive. c#                                   B               
      F# In this room I hear voices linger. We never talked about the
price. B                        F#   g#   B                F# You know
you're not the only one, who knows how to cry.

c#                    B          F#                             c#

good-bye.

good-bye.

When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide.
