[Verse]
Am7        Am         C                G     
Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby
           D   
Awaiting a word
Am      Am7            Gsus4       C     
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit
G       C G       C        D  
He runs ■ wishing he could fly
        Am          C     D  G       D
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye ■
Am         Am7         C                       G      
Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders
             C     D     
At the empty place inside
Am7                         Dsus4  Gsus4     
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
   G                     D      
He worries did he hear a goodbye
   Am7  C Dsus4 D G    
Or even ■ ■     ■ hello


[Chorus]
             Gsus4 
They are one person
         G   Gsus4
They are two alone
         G     Gsus4   
They are three together
         G    Gsus4 C     Gsus4 G
They are four each  other ■     ■
Am7                  
Stand by the stairway
                     C          G       
You'll see something certain to tell you
                  D   
Confusion has its cost
Asus4      A7    Am7  C     G    C        G      
Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers
              D   
Saying she is lost
Am7         C    G    
And choking ■ on hello
             G     
They are one person
             Gsus4
They are two alone
         G     Gsus4   
They are three together
         F               Gsus4 G
They are four each other ■     ■
