She had left me a note hanging on my door:
A C#m F#m Bm7
She say she couldn’t take it, she couldn’t take any more.
A C#m F#m Bm7
The pressure around me, just couldn’t see;
A C#m F#m Bm7
She felt like a prisoner who needs to be free.
A C#m F#m Bm7
Fools have tried, yeah, wisemen have failed.
A C#m F#m Bm7
Oh, listen to me, honey: life could never be another jail.

Still we know now we’ll never see smoke without fire
A C#m F#m Bm7
And everyone you see has a heart desire.
