Ooh-ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh
     Dm
As I pour out my story
                                    Bb
Drink me up, there is wine in every word

Here's to us now, my dear

We're being strong now
         Dm
And the dark dresses lightly

Razor sharp as it cuts
                Bb
Right through my soul

Here's to us now, my dear

You took too long

Dm                        C
Guess I shouldn't have kept the knife in my heart for so long
F                      Bb
Guess I shouldn't have held back when I needed you to know
Dm                        C
Guess I shouldn't have kept the knife in my heart for so long
F                      Bb
Guess I shouldn't have held back when I needed you to know
Dm  C                      F
Ooh, oh, I just want to cry
     Bb
Ooh, oh, with you tonight
Dm  C                      F
Ooh, oh, it's perfectly finе
                Bb
To grieve the hurt that's gonna diе
Dm
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Dm
Ooh-ooh, ooh

Dm
Let us dancе to our sorrow

Make amends
                               Bb
There's so much you still don't know

Here's to us now, my dear

We're going deep now
        Dm
All this fear, it's contagious

Now we're here
                   Bb
Let our glasses overflow

Here's to us now, my dear

We took too long

Dm                        C
Guess I shouldn't have kept the knife in my heart for so long

Guess I shouldn't have held back when I needed you to know
Dm                        C
Guess I shouldn't have kept the knife in my heart for so long

        Bb            Gm
To the river, to the water
            Dm                   F
Where the floodgates are wide open
         Bb         Gm          Dm   F
And the tower has fallen onto you
                 Bb                  Gm
Let me feel it, darling, darling, darling
