Tip Of My Tongue

[E]   [A]   [E]   [A]   [C#m]  [A]   [B]

An empty [E]house[A] is the only thi[E]ng standing
Between our[B] lives and th[A]e speed of[E] sound
Some [C#m]words [B]flew [E]out[A] and made a [E]crash landing
No lo[B]ve survived - not a [A]trace could be[E] found

And I b[C#m]roke your heart with the [E]back [E/G#]of my[A] mind [Am]
From the tip of [E]my tongue[A] to the [B]end of [E]the line [A]     [C#m]         [A]            [B]

I walked away and you stood there trembling
Like a leaf in the autumn chill
Now this house won't say, no, what I'm still remembering
Three angry words and a love that they killed

And I broke your heart with the back of my mind
From the tip of my tongue to the end of the [E]line  [E7]

[F#m]  And you couldn't [B]say how much it [E]hurt you [E7]
[F#m]  And I couldn't [B]see the damage I'd[E] done    [E7]
[A]  Till I watched [B]the greatest [Ab]love I've [C#m]known
[F#]  All come down to a slip of the [B]tongue

Well I'd take it back but time won't let me
Oh time just takes you further away
I watched you pack a house full of memories
Where did you go? Lord, what did I say?

And I broke your heart with the back of my mind
From the tip of my tongue to the end of the [E]line  [A]
From the tip of [E]my tongue[A] to the [B]end of [E]the line  [A]
From the tip of my [E]tongue[B] to the end of [E]the line
