After 2nd verse, end on this funky sequence : D -----3---|---3---3----------- B -----3---|---3---6----------- G -----5---|---5---3----------- NOTE - this sequence makes a come back D -----3---|---3---3----------- just before the end... G -----5---|---5---3----------- D ---0-----|-0----------------- For "kiss me please kiss me", you can go back into 2nd part of the intro : D -------------------------------|----------------------------------- B ----2----2----2-----2---5----5-|----0----0----0----0----7---7------ G ----2----2----2-----2---5----5-|----0----0----0----0----7---7------ D ----2----2----2-----2---5----5-|----0----0----0----0----7---7------ G ----2----2----2-----2---5----5-|----0----0----0----0----7---7------ D --4-X--4-X--4-X---4-X-----7----|--2-X--2-X--2-X--2-X------9--------

*Instrumental
This is the instrumental bit. The chords are Dsus/D, with Jeff's voice doing
lots of "ooooh"s while the guitar does something like:
D --------------|--------[rapid]-----|---[rapid]----|-------------|----
B --------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------|----
G -4---7---6--2>|4--6---11>12>11---4>|6---6>7>6---4>|6---2>4--1>2-|-14-
D --------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------|----
G -4---7---6--2>|4--6---11>12>11---4>|6---6>7>6---4>|6---2>4--1>2-|-14-
D --------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------|----
Improvise with the above chords, many different combinations of them work.
Then this sequence over high falsetto 'oooooh's:
D -----------------|----------------------|---------------------
B -----------------|----------------------|---------------------
G --7---6---4---6--|----7----6----0-------|---7---6----0--------
D --9---7---5---7--|----9----7----2--4--7-|---9---7----0--------
G --7---6---4---6--|----7----6----0-------|---7---6----4--------
D --9---7---5---7--|----9----7----2--4--7-|---9---7----5--------
Back to sung lyrics :
D ----0------0--|--0---------------X--- || ---0--|-0--|---0--|----0---
B ----7------7--|--7---------------7--- || ---8--|-1--|---5--|----0---
G ----7------7--|--7---------------7--- || ---9--|-2--|---5--|----0---

D ----0------X--|--7---------------5--- || ---0--|-X--|------|----5---
"..Did you say ...no this can't happen... ..may ...be ..know him.."
Then back to part 2 of the intro, twice, then the Dsus/D bit, and then the climax... D -------------|----------|---------------------|------------ B ---7---------|-5--3-----|-5-------------------|--5---7----- G ---7---------|-6--4-----|-5-------------------|--6---7----- D ---0---------|-0--0-----|-0-------------------|--0---0----- G ---7---------|-6--4-----|-5-------------------|--6---7----- D -------------|----------|---------------------|------------ " bells of ... chime, burnin' clues... heart of mine.." And then into: D ----------|------------|----------|---------------------- B ---5------|---7--------|--8-------|---10----------------- G ---5------|---7--------|--9-------|---11----------------- D ---0------|---0--------|--0-------|----0----------------- G ---5------|---7--------|--9-------|---11----------------- D ----------|------------|----------|---------------------- "..so hard ..soft eyes ...memories ...sighs that it's..." Then back into the funky chords from earlier :
D -----3---|---3---3----------- B -----3---|---3---6----------- G -----5---|---5---3----------- D -----3---|---3---3----------- G -----5---|---5---3----------- D ---0-----|-0-----------------
Final chord sequence, let last chord ring. D ----0----0----0----0---// B ----7----7----0----5---// G ----7----6----7----5---// D ----0----0----0----0---// G ----7----7----7----5---// D ----0----0----0----0---//
Lyrics :
This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it's over
Just hear this and then I'll go :
you gave me more to live for,
more than you'll ever know.
This is our last embrace,
must I dream and always see your face
Why can't we overcome this wall
Baby, maybe it is just because I didn't know you at all.
Kiss me, please, kiss me
But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
You know, it makes me so angry 'cause I know that in time
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye.
Did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
and did you rush to the phone to call?
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying,
"maybe... you didn't know him at all."
Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
Burning clues into this heart of mine
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory
Of her sighs that, "it's over... it's over..."
