C   F   C   F   Em

[VERSE 1]
             F     C
I think this time
             F                Em                 Am      D7/F#
You've said enough to make me want to leave this place
             F               Em          Am
Still I keep coming back for more of the same
   Dm7           G
To fan the dying flame


[VERSE 2]
C                 C/B                Am            C/G          F     D7/F#
Here inside these walls that seem to move a little closer every day
C                               G                             Am    F
There must be a way out of this crazy game we play out to the end
C                            G
Let us just pretend a while
                                    Am      F   C   F   Em
Think about the good things now and then


[VERSE 3]
             F     C
I think this time
             F                 Em           Am      D7/F#
That was the best time that we two had ever known
             F             Em             Am
We tried the handle of the house upon the shore
Dm7            G
Found the open door


[VERSE 4]
C              C/B             Am             C/G           F       D7/F#
Once inside we found a curious moonbeam doing dances on the floor
C                             G                                 Am      F
We were only playing like two children who had stayed away from school
C
Two of us could not be wrong
G                                 Am      F   C   F   Em
Heaven knows who keeps the golden rule


[VERSE 5]
             F     C
I think this time
               F                  Em             Am     D7/F#
We've learned enough to know that nothing is the same
              F              Em           Am
But still the pounding of my heart hasn't changed
    Dm7          G
And leaving's so strange


[VERSE 6]
C             C/B               Am            C/G           F      D7/F#
Here among my thoughts of you I find a gentle longing to be free
C                               G                             Am    F
There must be a way out of this crazy game we play out to the end
    C                          G
But take away the in-between
                                    Am     F   D7/F#
Think about the good things now and then


[VERSE 7]
C                               G                             Am    F
We will see the day when you or I will stay or face up to the end
C                            G
Let us just pretend awhile
                                        Am
And think about the good things now and then
