[Verso 1]
G
Fourty seasons pass
Em
Silver lines and tales to tell
G
Memory's a desert
Em
Yeah, harder than I ever felt
{Pre Chorus}
C Dadd4add9 G
The moments never captured still remain
C Dadd4add9 G
And the highways of my heart end in my brain
C Dadd4add9 G D6add9/F# Em
Even when the silence goes, I'm lost and I think we're through
C Dadd4add9 G
All these winding roads lead back to you
[Refrão]
Fmaj7 G C Em Am
Cause we're all just pieces of the people that we meet
Fmaj7 G C
Give God the biggest piece of me
[Verso 2]
G
The joy is always fleeting
Em
Nothing ever lasts, they said
G
But everyday is new
Em
So we can do it all again, and again
{Pre Chorus}
C Dadd4add9 G
When everything got dark you lit me a flame
C Dadd4add9 G
And sat with me in smoke and all the rain
C Dadd4add9 G D6add9/F# Em
Spend ages on my own and didn't think I ever cared
C Dadd4add9 G
But nothing is complete unless it's shared
[Refrão]
Fmaj7 G C Em Am
Cause we're all just pieces of the people that we meet
Fmaj7 G C
Give God the biggest piece of me
[Ponte]
Dm C G
Keep it always in my mind
Dm C G
To send the test of time
Dm C G
Threaded bonds, and look alikes
Dm C G
Something I never thought I'd find
[Refrão]
Fmaj7 G C Em Am
Cause we're all just pieces of the people that we meet
Fmaj7 G C
Give God the biggest piece of me
Fmaj7 G
And if I could freeze it
C Em Am
Write your name in the wet concrete
Fmaj7 G C
A bumblebee, a friend carved into me
