Of all the Dance Hall Crashers tunes to not be transcribed, I can’t believe this is one.  Was one.  I worked out the album version the other day, still trying to put together a decent acoustic arrangement.

Intro:
C G Dm x2

Verse:
C            G                   Dm
It's morning two and you haven't called me
C           G                   Dm
It's like a thorn burning in my side
C        G                        Dm
Open the blinds, but something is different, can't put my finger on it
C                G                  Dm
The bright clean air makes me wanna hide
Am     G       F
'Cause now, oh now, this is how it ends
Am       G        F
Based on promises that we'll still be friends 

Chorus:
C                 G            Dm
But ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
C             G            Dm
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, now it's all been broken
C             G            Dm
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
C             G            Dm
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, you know I'd still do anything for you 

Verse:
Where is the day you used to inspire me?
Where is the time I used to depend?
On the relief of your anchor I thought I'd never need
Now that it's gone, will I slip away?
So now, oh now, this is how it ends
Based on promises that we'll still be friends

Chorus:
But ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, now it's all been broken
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, you know I'd still do anything

Bridge:
F       C
This is only a letter
F       C
Jumbled words, no false pretense
F        C
And it's not a true confession
G
'Cause you've cost me much more than you'll ever guess
F                C
But I'm not your fallen hero
F           C
Someone who came to your defense
F                 C
And when it's all done and over
G
I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it make sense 

C G Dm x2

C          G
Know it'll never be
Dm
Know it'll never be
C          G
Know it'll never be
Dm
Know it'll never be

Chorus:
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, now it's all been broken
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, I know it'll never be the same
Ba da, ba da, ba ba ba da, you know I'd throw it all away
