Capo: 1st fret

[Verse 1]
D
  I remember the night you weren't at home.
                           G
Had to work late is what I heard.
                D
That's what you said.
D
  I can never forget the way it felt.
                                G
You needed some time to work it out.
                D
That's what you said.
 
 
[Chorus]
    Em           D
And now I feel a fool,
       Am              G
'Cause late at night I call your name.
    Am             D
I'm wondering what for.
Am                     G
'Cause I've seen those other guys
Am                   D
Sniffin' around your door.
 
 
[Verse 2]
         D
Whatever happened to the words:
                      G
“Lovers for all eternity”?
                D
That's what you said.
                D
Well I was your Romeo,
                          G
You were my Juliet eternally.
                D
That's what you said.
 
 
[Chorus]
    Em           D
And now I feel a fool,
       Am              G
'Cause late at night I hear your voice
Am             D
Calling out my name.
Am              G
Oh, I know it's just a dream,
    Am                D
But every night's the same.
 
 
[Bridge]
Bb            G
  I carried a torch for you
            F         C
Through the thick and thin.
Bb            G
  You know it don't seem right
       F              C
That I won't see you again -- no, no.
 
 
[Interlude]
D    G D    G D    G D  Em D
 
 
[Chorus]
    Am              G
Oh, late at night I call your name.
    Am             D
I'm wondering what for,
       Am                  G
'Cause I keep seeing those other guys
Am                   D
Sniffin' around your door.
 
 
[Bridge]
Bb            G
  I carried a torch for you
F                    C
Through the wind and rain.
Bb
  I'll never forget you,
      F              C            F
But I won't see you again  -- no, no.
 
 
[Verse 3]
D
I thought your friends all liked me.
                           G
I thought I fitted in just right.
                D
That's what you said.
D
Soon I'll be gone and you'll be free.
                                    G
You can go find the things that you want.
                D
That's what you said
 
 
[Chorus]
    Em             D
And I won't feel a fool.
    Am                    G
Ah, late at night I still call your name.
    Am             D
I'm wondering what for,
       Am                  G
'Cause I keep seeing those other guys
     Am                   D
Come sniffin' around your door -- what for?
              I remember the night you weren't at home
(had to work late is what I heard)
That's what you said
I can never forget the way it felt,
you needed some time to work it out,
that's what you said
and now I feel a fool.

'Cos late at night I call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I've seen those other guys
sniffin' around your door.

Whatever happened to the words
'Lovers for all eternity?'
That's what you said,
I was your rome, you were my Juliet,
eternally
that's what you said
and now I feel a fool.

'Cos late at night I hear your voice
calling out my name,
oh I know it's just a dream
but every night's the same.

I carried a torch for you, through the thick and thin
you know it don't seem right that I won't see you again
No no

Late at night I call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I keep seeing those other guys
sniffin' around your door.

I carried a torch for you through the wind and rain
I'll never forget you, but I won't see you again
No no

I thought your friends all liked me
I thought I fitted in just right,
that's what you said.
Soon I'll be gone and you'll be free,
you can go find the things that you want.
That's what you said
and I won't feel a fool

'cos late at night I still call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I keep seeing those other guys
sniffin' around your door.

What for?
