Capo 5
E
You're gone, you're gone
E
You're with me but you're gone
F#
A feeling once so strong
A*
Is now an old and forgotten song
E
You don't sing so high and wild
E
You don't sing so high and wild
E
You're here, you're here
E
But your spirit disappeared
F#
Off to some place that I don't know
A*
Some human thing has squashed your soul
E
And I don't recognize you
E
I wish that this could turn our thing to bliss
F#
And we could put our fears aside
A*
And learn to laugh and be alive
E
And let our bodies be revived
A F#
But you can't
E
Say that you won't
A D A E
What am I supposed to think that's the truth?
A F# E
Well has it ever been easy for you?
A D A E
To stand behind the things that I do
E
I wait for this to pass
E
For us to both say at last
E
On this dark and narrow path
F# A* G E
The sun is shining and we remember what it is we're living for
E
I'm neither innocent or wise when you look me in the eyes
E
You might as well be blind
E
You might as well be blind
F# A* E
Cause you don't see me anymore
A
And you
F# E
You cant tell me that you love me
A D A E
When I'm standing in your way
A F# E
Well this won't be so much easier
A D A E
If I had nothing more to say
A F# E
Well this would all be so much easier
A D A E
If I had nothing more to say
A
If only if only
D A E
I had nothing more to say
A
Oh if only if only
D A E
I had nothing more to say
