G#     Cm
Woe is me
G#         Cm             G#
Faithless you and selfish me
        Cm              G#             Cm
I will leave a key for you outside my doorway

Woe is me
One if by the land or two by sea
So, won't you leave for me a light outside your doorway?

Chorus:
Fm    D#                   G#        C#
On a ladder from there to here I'll climb
All this clatter between my ears I find
Does it matter if I can't clear my mind?
Fm         D#                G#
There's a right and a wrong time

Woe is me
Sentimental you and faithful me
And I will be the one to gaze on you discreetly

Slow your speed
Turn yourself around and follow me
Cause I will be the one who preys upon you sweetly

Chorus

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Chorus

There's a right and a wrong time
There's a right and a wrong time

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
