*from 'Back to Black (2006)*
 
[Verse 1]
 
E/B                           F7/Ab
 All I can ever be to you, is a darkness that we knew,
    A            G#m   F#m     G#m  A  A/Bb
And this regret I got ac-customed to.
 
E/B                           F7/Ab
 Once it was so right, when we were at our high,
     A            G#m     F#m       G#m  A  A/Bb
 Waiting for you in the ho-tel at night.
 
 [Verse 2]
         E/B                            F7/Ab
I knew I hadn't met my match, but every moment we could snatch.
     A            G#m     F#m       G#m  A  A/Bb
I don't know why I got so attached.
 
         E/B                            F7/Ab
It's my responsibility, and you don't owe nothing to me,
     A            G#m     F#m       G#m
But to walk away; I have no ca-pacity.
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
E/B                           F7/Ab
 I don't understand; why do I stress a man,
    A            G#m   F#m     G#m  A  A/Bb
When there's so many better things at hand?
 
E/B                             F7/Ab
We could a never had it all; we had to hit a wall,
    A            G#m       F#m      G#m  A  A/Bb
So this is in-evita-ble withdrawal.
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
E/B                        F7/Ab
Even if I stop wanting you, a per-spective pushes through,
    A            G#m       F#m      G#m  A  A/Bb
I'll be some next man's other woman soon.
 
        E6                               A#m7b5
I can't play myself again, I should just be my own best friend,
     A            G#m     F#m       G#m
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men.
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
 
[Bridge 1]
 
   A9/B                                                  B7/A
So we are history; your shadow covers me, the sky above, a blaze...
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
 
 
[Verse 5]
 
E/B                        F7/Ab
I wish I could say no regrets, and no e-motional debts,
    A            G#m   F#m     G#m  A  A/Bb
'Cos as we kiss good-bye the sun sets.
 
E/B                        F7/Ab
So we are history; the shadow covers me,
    A            G#m   F#m     G#m  A  A/Bb
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see.
 
 
[Chorus 4]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
 
 
[Chorus 5]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
 
 
[Chorus 6]
 
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7      C#m7
 He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
Amaj7 F#m7 G#m7          C#m7
 He takes the day, but I'm grown.
       Amaj7         F#m7      G#m7         C#m
And in your way, in this blue shade,
   F#7          (G#)   A9
My tears dry on their own.
