Dm
But I must confess
       Em         F
I did it all for myself
  F            G               C    Dm
I gathered you here to hide from some vast unnameable fear
     Dm
But the loneliness never left me
  Em
I always took it with me
       F                       Em
But I can put it down in the pleasure of your company

               Dm
And there will be no grand choirs to sing
  Em
No chorus will come in
  Am
No ballad will be written
           F
It will be entirely forgotten

       Dm
And if tomorrow it's all over
        Em
At least we had it for a moment
          F
Oh, darling, things seem so unstable
       G             C
But for a moment we were able to be still

( F  C  F  C )
( F  C  F )

               Dm
And there will be no grand choirs to sing
  Em
No chorus will come in
  F
No ballad will be written
           Em
This will be entirely forgotten

[Outro] Dm  Em  Am  F
        Dm  Em  F  G  C
