CAPO 1st Fret
D
The shadows move slowly
G
They climb up the walls
D G
Till the light hits the metal and glass
D
It shines through the dust
G
Revealing the love
Bm A G
In an old black and white photograph
A
That was before
G A
But it's not anymore
(Chorus)
D G
Cause outside the frame
Bm A G
You're getting on with your life
D G A
I wonder if I ever will
D G
Cause inside my heart
Bm A G
I picture us frozen in time
D G A
Just you and I standing still
G A
Now everything's changed
Bm A D G A
Outside the frame
D
2.The look in your eyes
G
Your hand in mine
Bm A G
And we're both holding on to a dream
D
I'm still trapped in that moment
G
Where the sun always shines
Bm A G
And I don't ever want to be free
A
No, I want to stay
G A
As the light fades away
(Chorus)
Outside the frame
Where you're getting on with your life
And I know that I never will
Cause inside my heart
I still picture us frozen in time
Just you and I standing still
Now everything's changed
Bm A
Outside the frame
G D G
I keep waiting for something to change
D Bm G
But the picture inside stays the same
D A G
And the fact of the matter remains
A Bm A G A D
Outside the frame
