Key: CC | Capo: 2fr |  Left-Handed 



Intro: C  F/A  G  C    F/A  G  C

              F/A      G         C
We ordered up one more bottle of wine
                 F           G             C
You told me your story and I thought about mine
                  F/A           G         C
You said when you lost her, you lost everything
               F           G     C
It all started having a familiar ring


Interlude: C  F/A  G  C    F/A  G  C


                   F/A     G          C
So, I asked you to take me some place quiet
                   F             G           C
We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
           F/A       G        C
Somewhere around the break of day
                F             G     C
I could hear it coming from a mile away


Chorus:
    F              C
So, don't say that word
        Dm7         C      
Not the one we both heard too much
    F             C           Dm7
You may think you do, but you don't
              G7             C
It's just the fear of being alone


Interlude: C  F/A  G  C    F/A  G  C


         F/A        G       C
Reckless hearts can clear a path
             F           G    C
Wider than a hurricane's aftermath
           F/A       G         C
We've both travelled down that road
                     F     G        C
Where in the name of love, anything goes


Chorus:
    F              C
So, don't say that word
        Dm7         C      
Not the one we both heard too much
    F             C           Dm7
You may think you do, but you don't
              G7             Am
It's just the fear of being alone


Bridge:
       F            C
Like a child in the night
     Am        F
With no one to hold you
             C                       G
And tell you everything's gonna be alright


  C      F/A G         C
I must admit it's been fun 
              F/C       G        C
But that's no reason to jump the gun
           F/A   G         C
If this is real, time will tell
               N.C. (F)         (G)    (C)
So let me bite my   tongue and remind myself


Chorus:
F              C
Don't say that word
        Dm7         C      
Not the one we both heard too much
    F             C           Dm7
You may think you do, but you don't
              G7             C
It's just the fear of being alone
