VERSE
D Bb C
I've used hammers made out of wood.
C# D
I have played games with pieces and rules.
Bb C
I've deciphered tricks at the bar,
C# D
but now you're gone I havn't figured out why.
Bb C
I've come up with riddles and jokes about war.
C# D
I've figured out numbers and what they're for.
Bb C
I've understood feelings and I've understood words,
C#
but how could you be taken away.
Chorus
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Dsus2 D
And wherever you've gone,
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Bm
and wherever we might go.
A
It don't seem fair,
D
todays just disappear.
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Dsus2 D
Your light's reflected now,
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Bm
Reflected from afar.
A
We were but stones,
D
your light made us stars.
BRIDGE
D Bb C D Bb
VERSE
D Bb
With heavy breath,
C
awakened regrets,
C# D
backpages and days alone that could have been spent,
Bb C
together, but we were miles apart,
C# D
every inch between us becomes light years now.
Bb
No time to be void,
C
or to save up on life,
C#
ah you've got to spend it all...
Chorus
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Dsus2 D
And wherever you've gone,
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Bm
and wherever we might go.
A
It don't seem fair,
D
you seemed to like it here.
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Dsus2 D
Your light's reflected now,
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Bm
Reflected from afar.
A
We were but stones,
D
your light made us stars.
