[Opening]
[F] [Gm7]
[F]It’s sad to think, we’re not [Gm7]gonna make it,
And it’s getting to the point, [C7]where we just [F]can’t fake it. [F7]
[Bb]For some ungodly reason, [Am7]we just [Bb]won’t let it die, [Bbm]
I guess [F]neither one of us, (neither one of us),
[Gm7]Wants to be the first to say good[F]bye [Gm7]

[verse 2]
[F]I keep wondering what I’m gonna [Gm7]do without you,
And I guess you must be [C7]wondering the [F]same thing too. [F7]
So we go [Bb]on, go [Am7]on together, living our [Bb]lie, [Bbm]
Because I guess, [F]neither one of us, (neither one of us),
[Gm7]Wants to be the first to say good[F]bye [F7]

[verse 3]
[Bb]Everytime I find the nerve, everytime, I find the nerve,
To [F]say I’m leaving;
[Bb]Memories, those old memories get in my [F]way. [F7]
[Bb]Lord knows it’s only me, only know, it’s only me,
[Am7]That I’m deceiving.
[Dm]When it comes to saying good[Dm]bye,
That’s a [Dm7]simple word, that I [Dm]just can[Gm7]not say [C]

[verse 4]
[F]There can be no way, there can be no way, be no way,
This can have a [Gm7]happy ending,
So we [C7]just go on, hurting and pre[F]tending. [F7]
Con[Bb]vincing ourselves, [Am7]
To give it just [Bb]one more try. [Bbm]
Because [F]neither one of us, (neither one of us),
[Gm7]Wants to be the first to say;

[Closing]
[Am7]Neither one of us, (neither one of us),
[D]Wants to be the [D7]first to say,
[Bb]Neither one of us, [Gm7]wants to be the [C7]first to say
[F]Farewell my [Bbm]love, [C7]good[F]bye
