Am  F x2
Verse
          Am
Your fingertips across my skin

The palm trees swaying in the wind 
   Am              F
Images 
            Am
You sang me Spanish lullabies
             F
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
       Am           F
Clever trick 
        G                       C
Well, I never want to see you unhappy
  F                                G
I thought you'd want the same for me 
Chorus
C
 Goodbye, my almost lover 
G
 Goodbye, my hopeless dream

 I'm trying not to think about you

 Can't you just let me be?

 So long, my luckless romance
G
 My back is turned on you

 Should've known you'd bring me heartache

 Almost lovers always do

  We walked along a crowded street

You took my hand and danced with me

And when you left, you kissed my lips

You told me you would never, never forget
         Am       F
These images, no
          G                       C
Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy

Verse
Am                   G
 I cannot go to the ocean
                              Am
I cannot drive the streets at night
                           F
I cannot wake up in the morning 
                  Am
Without you on my mind 
                                G
Well so you're gone and I'm haunted 
                       F
And I bet you are just fine 
F
Did I make it that 
Fm
Easy to walk right in and out 
      G
Of my life? 
Chorus
C
 Goodbye, my almost lover

 Goodbye, my hopeless dream 
Dm
 I'm trying not to think about you

 Can't you just let me be?

 So long, my luckless romance
G
 My back is turned on you 
Dm
 Should've known you'd bring me heartache
F                    C
