[Verse 1]
D
Turn around
G
Don't whisper out my name
D C G
For like a breeze it might stir a dyin' flame
D G
I'll miss someone if it eases you know
C D G
And close the door lightly when you go
[Verse 2]
D G
Take your tears to someone elses eyes
D C G
They're made of glass and they cut like wounding lies
D G
Memories are drifting like the snow
C D G
So close the door lightly when you go
[Chorus]
C D G G7
Who was the one who wasted time
C D G
Who was the one who stole my mind
C D G
Oh, who was the one who made me feel unkind
C D G
So fare thee well sweet love of mine
[Verse 3]
D G
Don't look back to where you once had been
D C G
Look straight ahead if you're walkin' in the rain
D G
And find a light if the path is dark and cold
C D G G7
And close the door lightly when you go
[Chorus]
C D G G7
Who was the one who wasted time
C D G (up bass)
Who was the one who stole my mind
C D G
Oh, who was the one who made me feel unkind
C D G G*
So fare thee well sweet love of mine
[Instrumental]
