[Verse 1]
C Am F C
Has anybody seen the sun today
C Am F C
The sky’s a perfect blue but all I see is rain
Em E C Am
For everywhere I go a gray cloud follows overhead
Em E Am G
Walkin’ down the street or alone in my cold bed
C Am F G C
And so, Heaven help me cause I think I’ve gone too far
 
[Verse 2]
C Am F C
My baby packed a suitcase and I watched her drive away
C Am F C
She said she couldn’t fight no more so here I sit and wait
Em E C Am
I’ve mastered being right so well that everything is wrong
Em E Am G
I’m killin’ time, countin’ seconds, minutes take too long
C Am F G C
And so Heaven help me cause I think I’ve gone too far
 
[Bridge]
Am Em E Am C D7
If I could hold my breath until I turned the color of the sky
Am Em E Am C D7
I’d be that perfect blue and maybe this old darkness would subside
D7 D7
Yes it might, If I tried
 
[Verse 3]
C Am F C
So if you see the sunshine won’t you send her back this way
C Am F C
Cause some may think I’m better off and I can hear them say:
Em E C Am
“Don’t be chasing rainbows” but I’m chasing after her
Em E Am G
I used to think she’d be back soon but now I’m not so sure
C Am F G
And so Heaven help me cause I think she’s gone too
C Am F G
Heaven help me cause I think she’s gone too
C Am F G C
Heaven help me cause I think she’s gone too far
