[Verse 1]
Am7 C G D
Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers near-by, awaiting a word.
Am7 C G D
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs wishing he could fly
Am7 C G C/G D
only to trip at the sound of good-bye...
[Verse 2]
Am7 C G
Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders at the empty
D
place in-side
Am7 C G
Heartlessly helping him-self to her bad dreams he worries did he hear
D Am7 C G C/G
a goodbye or even... hel-lo?
[Chorus]
G C/G G C/G G C/G
They are one person, they are two a-lone, they are three to-gether, they
G Dm/F C G C/G G
are for... each other
[Verse 3]
Am7 C G
Stand by the stairway you'll see something certain to tell you confusion
D
has its cost.
Am7 C G D
Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers, saying she is lost and
Am7 C C/G
choking... on hel-lo.
[Chorus]
G C/G G C/G G C/G
They are one person, they are two a-lone, they are three to-gether, they
G Dm/F C G C/G G
are for... each other
