Bm7                 Edim             Am6
How in - sen - si - tive I must have seemed

        Cdim(IV) Gdim Cdim      E9   E7
When she  told    me  that she loved me;

Em Em9     Em  Em9  CM7             C#m7-5
How un - moved and cold I must have seemed

         F#7           Bm
When she told me so sincerely.

D7   Am7  D7  Am7  Fdim   D7 Am7 D7  GM7
Why, she must have asked, did I just turn

    Em7     Edim Bm
And stare in icy silence?

D7            C#7               F#7
What was I to say? What can you say

       C#m7-5     F#7     Bm
When a  love af - fair is over?


Bm7             Edim          Am6
Now she's gone away and I'm alone

        Cdim(IV) Gdim  Cdim   E9         E7
With the  mem  -   o  - ry of her last look.

Em    Em9  Em   Em9 CM7           C#m7-5
Vague and drawn and sad, I see it still,

        F#7                 Bm
All her heartbreak in that last look.

D7   Am7  D7  Am7  Fdim   D7 Am7 D7  GM7
How, she must have asked, did I just turn

    Em7     Edim Bm
And stare in icy silence?

D7            C#7               F#7
What was I to say? What can you say

       C#m7-5     F#7     Bm
When a  love af - fair is over?
