  CHORUS:
  ...D...............................G............................D....
  I dreamt she held the hand of someone new.
  G..........................D.......
  Free agents can do.
  G...............................D...
  I gotta find out if it's true.
  ........A................................G.....
  So, I thought, if you don't mind,
  ...........D....G.
  I'd ask you?
  ............D........G.....D/F#bass..Em
  I'd ask you?

  ......................G............................................D....Em
  She won't believe me but I think of her a lot
  .............................G..............................................A...
  I remember little moments that she'll think I forgot.
  ..........G...........D..................G.....................D....G
  Still I don't deserve her. It's my fault we're apart.
  .......................D...................................G.......D/F#bass.Em....
  Fearing for my freedom brought an end before the....start.

  I can't make the change.
  I'm too long in the tooth.
  But the nights are long and lonely to tell the honest truth.
  So I spin in confusion,
  And I'd just confuse her too.
  So don't tell her I was asking.
  That's the safest thing to do.

  Tell me she's happy.
  Please tell me she still gleams.
  Is she holding hands, just like in my dreams?
  If she has another,
  Then he's one lucky guy.
  And I'll curse this crazy fool,
  Who let such a chance go by.
