[Primeira Parte]

C                      G
I knew you wanted to tell me
C                       G
In your voice there was something wrong
C       F       C     G      D/F#    Em
But if you would turn your face away from me
            Am               C
You cannot tell me you're so strong

                       G
Just let me ask of you one small thing
C                       G
As we have shared so many tears
C       F       C     G      D/F#    Em
With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long
Am                 C
Now are scattered on the wind

[Refrão]

                 G   Am7   C
In the terms of endearment
                     G Am7           C
In the terms of the life that you love
                     G  Am7          C
In the terms of the years that pass you by
                     G   Am7   C
In the terms of the reasons     why

                               G
Through the years I've grown to love you
C                        G
Though your commitment to most would offend
C       F       C     G      D/F#    Em
But I stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride
  Am                      C
Waiting for you to give in
                    G
You never really tried or so it seems
C             G                    C
I've had much more than myself to blame
F       C    G    D/F#    Em
I've had enough of trying everything
    Am            C
And this time it is the end

F                      G
There's no more coming back this way
C                         G
The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns
C       F       C     G      D/F#    Em
They've torn the life-blood from your naked eyes
      Am            C
Cast aside to be folorn

                G   Am7   C
In the terms of endearment
                     G Am7           C
In the terms of the life that you love
                     G  Am7          C
In the terms of the years that pass you by
                     G   Am7    C
In the terms of the reasons why

Am                         D
Funny, how it seems that all I've tried to do
Am                              D      Am 
Seemed to make no difference to you at all
