Strum
D-DU-UDU
?  7x7777
 wendy  sittin next to me
  (Fsus?) Dsus
 she's tryin hard to drink it away
   and i feel the rumble
  (Fsus?) Dsus
 of the subway beneath the stage
 and her eyes are screamin
 and her lips are pursed
 this ain't her first heartache
 but it feels like, feels like the worst, and she says
 (chorus)
  Asus E (Bsus?)
 can someone tell me how this can happen
  Asus E (Bsus?)
  i guess that god only knows
  Asus E (Bsus?)
 my heart used to be a sweet shop of love
  Asus E Dsus ----
 but now the sign on the door says, "sorry, we're closed"
 and i hear myself tell her
 some old words, know they won't help
 and then i feel guilty
 'cause i've closed some sweet shops myself
 we all talk about timing and lifestyles and such
 but to a heart that's been shattered words don't mean much
 all of our pining, it just goes to show
 don't you enter a shop with a sign on the door sayin
 sorry we're closed
 (chorus)
 well, she's been through all the pain that one can endure
 and this new man thinks she loves him, but he can't be sure
 his heart cries for wendy, she says that's how it goes
 well how was i supposed to know he can't read the sign sayin
 sorry we're closed
 (chorus)
