Tuning: Standard
Here’s the chord version of this song.
INTRO: D Em7 F#m7 Em7
VERSE 1:
With the
sweet drip of every
raindrop
Time brings you closer to
me
And with
each new sign at every
train-stop
A
nother hour without you is con
signed to hist
ory
And with
each tick of my al
arm clock
I get
crazy for the days to get to
you
When I can
hold you and kiss you and
have you
Instead of
staring at some photo li
ke a fool
PRE-CHORUS:
But as
day turns to night theres this
hopelessness to fight
When I
think that I might not make it t
hro[D/A]ugh
CHORUS:
But honey
sometimes I just
have to say your
name
To hear it
hanging in the air, to
know it sounds the same
And
sometimes when Im blue, I
know just what to do
To
keep the blues at bay you know I
only have to
say your
name
INTRO
VERSE 2:
So this
morning I picked up the
paper
In the
useless descent of the
rain
While
partners in heartbreak the
whole world over
Lie and cheat just the
same
And the
headlines proclaim
everything has changed
Love cant save you
now
As each
little motion of my
writswatch
Holds up my faith
somehow

PRE-CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
When Ive
used up all my
patience
When your
letters have been read twenty times
through
I can
drink all the wine in this
place of mine
But it
aint no replacement, it
aint no replacement for
you
……
…..

CHORUS:
‘Cause honey
sometimes I just have to
say your
name
To hear it
hanging in the air, to
know it sounds the same
And
sometimes when Im blue, I
know just what to do
To
keep the blues at bay you (know I only have to say)
You know I only have to
say your
name…
