               D F#m       Bm
You're sleeping  night and day
Em7 D        A
How'd you do it?
      D F#m   Bm
Me I am wide awake
Em7 D      A
Feeling defeated

Chorus:
            D               A
I say your name, I say I'm sorry
                 Bm              G
I know it's not working, I'm no holiday
               D                A
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
             Bm               G
We just got nothing, nothing left to say

Another year gets away
Another summer of love
I don't know why I care
We miss it every summer

Chorus:
I say your name, I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doin' this, there's no other way
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
I just got nothin', nothin' left to say

   Bm   A           Em      G
It all, all catches up to me
   Bm   A           Em      G
It all, all catches up to me
         Bm
All the time

I say your name, I say I'm sorry
I know it's not workin', I'm no holiday
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
We just got nothin', nothin' left to say

I say your name, I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doin' this, there's no other way
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
I just got nothin', nothin' left to say

It all, all
Catches up to me
It all, all
Catches up to me
All the time
