   F                           Dm                    Bb
We sit and watch umbrellas fly I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
  F                  Dm                       Bb
I hear myself say my boat's leaving now so we shake hands and cry
           Dm             Am
Now I must wave good-bye, wave good-bye
Dm            Am
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Bb            C
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye

You know I don't want to cry again, I don't want to cry again
Don't want to say good-bye, I don't want to cry again
I don't want to run away, don't want to race this pain
I'll never see your face again

Oh but how, how can you say that I didn't try
You see things in the depths of my eyes that my love's run dry No..

I leave to their good-byes I've come to depend on the look in their eyes
My blood's sweet for pain, the wind and the rain 
Brings back words of a song and they say wave good-bye wave good-bye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye

You know, I don't want to fall again, I don't want to know this pain
I don't want another friend, I don't want to try again
Don't want to see you hurt, don't let me see you hurt
I don't want to cry again, I'll never see your face again

How can you say that I didn't try you know I did
You see things in the depths of my eyes that my love's run dry
I dont wanna cry again

So I read to myself a chance of a lifetime to see new horizons
