 Maybe the lateness of the hour


 


 Makes me seem bluer than I am


 


 But in my heart there is a shower,


 


 I hope she'll be happier with him.


 


 Maybe the darkness of the hour


 


 Makes me seem lonelier than I am,


 


 But over the darkness I have no power,


 


 Hope she'll be happier with him.


 


 I can't believe that she don't want to see me,


 


 We lived and loved with each other so long.


 


 I never thought that she really would leave me,


 


 But she's gone.


 


 Maybe the lateness of the hour


 


 Makes me seem bluer than I am,


 


 But in my heart there is a shower,


 


 Hope she'll be happier with him.


 


 **If you don't want to jump between the 12th & 3rd fret you can play the verse like this:
