Lyrics
Em Emsus2 Am) 2 Asus4 A Am Em Asus4 A open Em (Em Em7 A E) 2 Em Em7 A Am F#m G#m The time has come to kiss your love goodbye You thought you’d clipped my wings – but come watch me fly Speak no evil and you’ll hear no lies So for one last time come kiss your love goodbye You thought you had it all But you know that pride comes before a fall The world was waiting I could hear it call I came in crawling now I’m walking tall All the time that I’ve wasted Humble pie that I’ve tasted You want my advice, you want me to explain But I’ve told you twice so don’t ask me again There’s nothing you can gain in asking why Come on and kiss your love then watch me fly
