Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Thank you mam for asking, yes I am on my own

I guess it’s kind of obvious, I am eating here alone

I'm grateful for the company, tired of talking to myself

Don't you look into my eyes, for you might see someone else

Chorus

Love is a small and fragile thing

I spent a lot of cold nights missing you

Keep it in your hands or let it take wing

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you

Bridge

Verse 2

I've been to see a movie, about a man who saved the world,

Had the same old happy ending, where the hero gets the girl

And all I ever wanted was to be that hero too

Then I might still be with her instead of here with you

Chorus

Love is a small and fragile thing

I spent a lot of cold nights missing you

Keep it in your hands or let it take wing

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you

Verse 3

Thank you for your time now, I'm gonna go and walk

Might as well do that, because I am running out of talk

I could walk a thousand miles tonight, and never find my place

At least until it gets too light to hide my tearful face

Chorus

Love is a small and fragile thing

I spent a lot of cold nights missing you

Keep it in your hands or let it take wing

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you

Bridge

(Single strums)

Verse 4

(Single strums)

There's a low ballet on the highway, brief faces in the light

I catch them for a second, heading somewhere in the night

(Back to normal strumming)

We have no connection, but the darkness and the road

I better find a place tonight, I better call it home

Chorus

Love is a small and fragile thing

I spent a lot of cold nights missing you

Keep it in your hands or let it take wing

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you

I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
