[G]They passed me [Gj7]by, [Bm]all of those great rom[Em]anc[Em7]es
[C]You were, I [G]felt, robbing [D]me of my [C]rightful [D]chances
[G]My picture [Gj7]clear, [Bm]everything seemed so [Em]eas[Em7]y
[C]And so I [Bm]dealt you the blow
One of [Em]us had to go
[Am]Now it's different, [C/G]I want you to [D7/F#]know
One of us is [G]crying
One of [G/F#]us is [Em]lying
In her [Em7]lonely [C]bed[E7] [Am]
[C6/G]Staring at the [D]ceiling
[C]Wishing she was [D7]somewhere else inst[G]ea[G/F#]d[Em] [Em7] [C] [D7]
One of us is [G]lonely
One of [G/F#]us is [Em]only
Waiting [Em7]for a [C]call[E7] [Am]
Sorry for her[A7]self, feeling [G]stupid feeling small
[D7(sus)]Wishing she had never left at [D7]all
I saw myself as a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
That's how I started the show
One of us had to go
Now I've changed and I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
Never left at all
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
