Meat Loaf : Read 'em and weep (Jim Steinman)
[Db6] [Db] [Bbm] [Bbm7] [Gb] [Gbmaj7] [Ab]
[Db6] [Db] [Bbm] [Bbm7] [Gb] [Gbmaj7] [Ab]
I've been t[Db]rying for hours just to t[Bbm]hink of what exactly to sa[Gb]y[Ab]
I thought I'd l[Db]eave you with a letter or f[Bbm]irey speech
Like when an a[Gb]ctor makes an exit at the [Ab]end of a play
And I've been d[Db]ying for hours
Trying to [Bbm]fill up all the holes with some s[Gb]ense[Ab]
I'd like to k[Db]now how you faded and you t[Bbm]hrew it away
I'd like to g[Gb]ive you all the reasons and what e[Ab]verything meant
Well I could t[Fm]ell you good-bye or maybe s[Ebm]ee you around
With just a t[Db]ouch of a sarcastic t[Bbm]hanks
We started o[Gb]ut with a bang and at the t[Ebm]op of the world
Now the g[E]uns are exhausted, the b[Ab]ullets are blanks
And everything's blank
If I could o[Db]nly find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh, it's t[(Db)]here in my e[Fm]yes so can't you [Gb]see me ton[Ebm]ight
C'mon and l[Bbm]ook at me and r[Ab]ead 'em and w[Db]eep
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh, it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
[Db6] [Db] [Bbm] [Bbm7] [Gb] [Gbmaj7] [Ab]
[Db6] [Db] [Bbm] [Bbm7] [Gb] [Gbmaj7] [Ab]
I've been wh[Db]ispering softly trying to [Bbm]build a cry up into a s[Gb]cream[Ab]
We let the p[Db]ast slip away and put the f[Bbm]uture on hold
Now the p[Gb]resent is nothing but a h[Ab]ollowed out dream [Ab7]
And I've been d[Db]ying for hours
Trying to [Bbm]fill up all the holes with some s[Gb]ense[Ab]
I'd like to k[Db]now why you faded and you t[Bbm]hrew it away
I'd like to g[Gb]ive you all the reasons and what e[Ab]verything meant
Well I could t[Fm]ell you good-bye or maybe [Ebm]see you around
With just a t[Db]ouch of a sarcastic t[Bbm]hanks
But now the r[Gb]ooms are all empty, the c[Ebm]andles are dark
The g[E]uns are exhausted and the b[Ab]ullets are blanks
And everything's blank
If I could o[Db]nly find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's [(Db)]there in my e[Fm]yes so can't you [Gb]see me to[Ebm]night
C'mon and [Bbm]look at me and r[Ab]ead 'em and w[Db]eep
Oh, it's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
Oh, it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Read 'em and weep [Gb]- For all the h[Ab]ours we'll be s[Db]pending alone
Read 'em and weep [Gb]- For the d[Ab]reams we'll i[Db]gnore
Running silent and deep [Gb]- And all those promises we p[Fm]romised to [Bbm]keep
T[Ebm]hey won't be k[Ab]ept anym[Db]ore
Read 'em and weep - For the magic that our bodies had made
Read 'em and weep - For the blood that we lost
Running silent and deep - And all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
Ooh, whatever the cost
Read 'em and weep [Gb]- For the m[Ab]emories still al[Db]ive in the bed
Read 'em and weep [Gb]- For the l[Ab]ies we beli[Db]eved
Running silent and deep [Gb]- And all the things that we'll have n[Fm]ever been s[Bbm]aid
Why don't you [Bbm]look at me and r[Ab]ead 'em and w[Db]eep
C'mon and l[Bbm]ook at me and r[Ab]ead 'em
It's t[Db]here in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's [(Db)]there in my e[Fm]yes, it's [Gb]all I can [Ebm]say
C'mon and [Bbm]look at me and r[Ab]ead 'em and w[Db]eep
