[Verse 1]

A F#m6
All I can ever be to you is a darkness that we know
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
And this regret I got accustomed to
A F#m6
Once it was so right when we were at our high
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
A F#m6
I knew I hadn't met my match but every moment we could snatch
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
I dont know why I got so attached
A F#m6
It' s my responsibility and you dont owe nothing to me
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
But to walk away, I have no capacity

[Chorus]

D Bm7
He walks away,
C#m7 F#m7
the sun goes down
D Bm7
He takes the day
C#m7 F#m7
but I'm grown
D Bm7
And in your way
C#m7 F#m7
in this blue shade
Bm7 D
My tears dry on their own

[Verse 2]

A F#m6
I dont understand, why do I stress the man
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
When there's so many better things at hand
A F#m6
We could a never had it all, we had to hit a wall
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
So this is inevitable withdrawal
A F#m6
Even if I stop wanting you, a perspective pushes through
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
I' ll be some next man' s other woman soon
A F#m6
I cannot play myself again, I should just be my own best
friend
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
Not **** myself in the head with stupid men

[CHORUS]

D D
So we are history, your shadow covers me
D D
The sky above, a blaze

[CHORUS]

A F#m6
I wish I could sing no regrets and no emotional debts
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
'Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets
A F#m6
So we are history, the shadow covers me
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see

[CHORUS]

D Bm7
He walks away,
C#m7 F#m7
the sun goes down
D Bm7
He takes the day
C#m7 F#m7
but I'm grown
D Bm7
And in your way
C#m7 F#m7
in this blue shade
Bm7 D
My tears dry on their own

D Bm7
He walks away,
C#m7 F#m7
the sun goes down
D Bm7
He takes the day
C#m7 F#m7
but I'm grown
D Bm7
And in your way
C#m7 F#m7
in this blue shade
Bm7 D
My tears dry on their own
HALF TIME
AMY WINEHOUSE

[Verse 1]
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
Simple, sweet guitar,
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
Humbled by the bass.
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
So when the beat kicks in,
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
Everything falls into place.
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
And it overpowers me
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
I can't help but dance
Dmin7
You can try to stop me now
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
But you won't get the chance

[Chorus]
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change
Dmin7 Emin7
See it from a different view
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change

[Verse 2]
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
Rhythm floods my heart
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
The melody it feeds my soul
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
The tune tears me apart
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
And it swallows me whole
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
You should thank your lucky stars
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
'Cause the music is a gift
Dmin7
And it's stronger than all else
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
Provides me with uplift

[Chorus]
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change
Dmin7 Emin7
See it from a different view
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change

[Verse 3]
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
My lyrics revealing
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
Some natural vibe
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
Some kind of laid back feeling
Cmaj7 Bm7b5 Amaj7
Oh, just let it ride
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
And when Frank Sinatra sings
Dmin7 A7#5 A7
It’s too much to take
Dmin7
So I sing the standard shit
Amaj7 Bm7b5 Cmaj7 Dmin7
It pacifies my ache

[Chorus]
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change
Dmin7 Emin7
See it from a different view
Amaj7 Dmin7 Emin7
Half time, time to think it through
Amaj7
Consider the change
