Here's the chord version of this song.
INTRO: D Em7 F#m7 Em7
[D] [Em7] [F#m7] [A]
VERSE 1:
With the [D]sweet drip of every [Em7]raindrop
[F#m7]Time brings you closer to [Em7]me
And with [D]each new sign at every [Em7]train-stop
A[F#m7]nother hour without you is con[Em7]signed to hist[D]ory[Em7][F#m7][A]
And with [D]each tick of my al[Em7]arm clock
I get [F#m7]crazy for the days to get to [Em7]you
When I can [D]hold you and kiss you and [Em7]have you
Instead of [F#m7]staring at some photo li[Em7]ke a fool
PRE-CHORUS:
But as [G]day turns to night theres this [Em7]hopelessness to fight
When I [G]think that I might not make it t[A]hro[D/A]ugh[A7]
CHORUS:
But honey [D]sometimes I just [G]have to say your [D]name
To hear it [G]hanging in the air, to [Em7]know it sounds the same
And [Em7]sometimes when Im blue, I [G]know just what to do
To [A]keep the blues at bay you know I [G]only have to [A]say your [D]name
INTRO
VERSE 2:
So this [D]morning I picked up the [Em7]paper
In the [F#m7]useless descent of the [Em7]rain
While [D]partners in heartbreak the [Em7]whole world over
[F#m7]Lie and cheat just the [Em7]same
And the [D]headlines proclaim [Em7]everything has changed
[F#m7]Love cant save you [Em7]now
As each [D]little motion of my [Em7]writswatch
[F#m7]Holds up my faith [Em7]somehow

PRE-CHORUS:
But as [G]day turns to night theres this [Em7]hopelessness to fight
When I [G]think that I might not make it t[A]hro[D/A]ugh[A7]

And [Em7]sometimes when Im blue, I [G]know just what to do
To [A]keep the blues at bay you know I [G]only have to say your [A]name[D][A]
BRIDGE:
When Ive [G]used up all my [D]patience
When your [G]letters have been read twenty times [D]through
I can [F#m7]drink all the wine in this [G]place of mine
But it [Em7]aint no replacement, it [A]aint no replacement for
[D]you[F#m7]......[Bm7].....[A]...[Em7]...[G][A][D][A7]
CHORUS:
'Cause honey [D]sometimes I just have to [G]say your [D]name
To hear it [G]hanging in the air, to [Em7]know it sounds the same
And [Em7]sometimes when Im blue, I [G]know just what to do
To [A]keep the blues at bay you (know I only have to say)
You know I only have to [A]say your [D]name...[D].ooooh
OUTRO:
[D] hoo[Em7]o... [F#m7] Oooh[D] hooo[Em7].. [F#m7] You know I
[D] Only have to say your name[Em7] I only have to say yo[F#m7]ur name

Oooh [D]yay yah...ay yah, oooo[Em7]h ay yah[F#m7], I only have, only have to
