If I Don't See You Again (Ver. 2)

Key: DMedium

Dadd9

"If I Don't See You Again" By Neil Diamond Version 2

If I don?t Dadd9see yoDu again Dadd9 D

It was a Dadd9hell oDf a ride Dadd9 D

Don?t need to sGay lets be friends

Don?t need to promise you?ll write

We rode that Atrain through the night Em A A

And never cared where it went Em A A

If I don?t Dadd9see yoDu again Dadd9 D

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again

We ran a Dadd9whole Dother race

Two strangers mGeet on the road

And find their time and their place

We never oAnce had to lie Em A A

We?d passed the age of consent Em A A

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again Dadd9 D

I know its crDazy out there

I hated slGeeping around

I went out lDooking for love

And never lAiked what I found

Don?t pay to mDake it alone

God knows it?s lGonely out there

I made it Donce on my own

And hardly Aanyone cared

If I don?t Dadd9see yoDu again Dadd9 D

DWho you gonna run to baby

Who you gonna hide behind

When the nights get sGuddenly cold

Who?s gonna hold you

AWho?s gonna know Who will you go to?

DWho you gonna call if it ain?t me

When your feeling lost and there?s nobody out there

GLooking for you, What will you do?

AWhere will you go?

If I don?t see you again Dadd9 D

If I don?tDadd9 see yDou again

You made iDadd9t happDen somehow

I think I gGave up on life

But I feel better right now

Something you sAaid turned me round Em A A

Don?t even know what you meant Em A A

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again Dadd9 D

And at the Dend of the day

I hated slGeeping alone

There?s nothing wDorse when you?re lost

And you don?t wAanna go home

Its gonna wDork out some way

I just don?t wGanna be found

I?m waiting hDere round the bend

And I?ll be hAanging around

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again Dadd9 D

DWho am I kidding I?m going nowhere

I can?t even get through an hour

Without you shGould be ashamed

Just wanna hear you cAalling my name

DTwo of us missed connections

Guess we must have somehow missed something more

Cos wGe?re here alone

I know we?re together but tAoo far apart

To know how to get back home Dadd9 D

Its time for sDaying goodbye

Cos if I stGayed for too long

You?d get to knDow me too well

And find that sAomething was wrong

The time is Dperfect to go

Before the cGurtain descends

Right now when bDoth of us know

That everythingA?s got to end

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again Dadd9 D

What?s it gonna cDome to baby

Who you gonna hide behind

When the nights get fGilled up with doom

Looking to run

You rAun out of room

And wDill you be the one to save me

Doesn?t look like the future is clearing

GNeed you to hear me playing a tune

When nAobody hears me

I end up playing to the moon Dadd9 D

Its time for sDaying goodbye

Cos if I stGayed for too long

You?d get to knDow me too well

And find that sAomething was wrong

The time is pDerfect to go

Before the cGurtain descends

Right now when bDoth of us know

That everything?As got to end

If I don?t sDadd9ee youD again Dadd9 D

Somehow we Dadd9both mDade it through Dadd9 D

I would have gGave up on life

Before I gave up on you

You went and tAurned me around

Could be was sAomething you said

I couldn?t make Gout the sound

I didn?t cAare what it meant

If I don?t see you agDain
