Intro: Am F C Am F C

                 Am     F C
The sky is red tonight,
                    Am     F C
We’re on the edge tonight,
No shooting star to guide us.

 F
   Eye for an eye,
 Am             G       F
   Why tear each other apart?
   Please, tell me why,
 Am          G          F
   Why do we make it so hard?
   Look at us now,
 Am        G                F
   We only got ourselves to blame,
   It’s such a shame.

Chorus:
     Am
     How many times can we win and lose?
     F
     How many times can we break the rules?
        C              G
     Between us – only teardrops.

     Am
     How many times do we have to fight?
     F
     How many times till we get it right?
        C              G
     Between us – only teardrops.

Am F C Am F C

So come and face me now
Here on the stage tonight,
Let’s leave the past behind us.

   Eye for an eye,
   Why tear each other apart?
   Please, tell me why,
   Why do we make it so hard?
   Look at us now,
   We only got ourselves to blame,
   It’s such a shame - tell me…

Chorus:
     How many times can we win and lose?
     How many times can we break the rules?
     Between us – only teardrops.

     How many times do we have to fight?
     How many times till we get it right?
     Between us - only teardrops.

   (Tell me now)
                       Am                  C
   What’s gone between us has come between us,
        G
   Only teardrops.
            F
   (Tell me now)
                       Am                  G
   What’s gone between us has come between us.

Chorus:

     Between us – only teardrops.

          Am         F C
     Only teardrops…
           G        Am         F C
     Oh-oh-oh, only teardrops,
          G
     Only teardrops.

     How many times can we win and lose?
     How many times can we break the rules?
     Between us – only teardrops.

     How many times do we have to fight?
     How many times till we get it right?
     Between us – only teardrops.
