View chords used in this chart
Gm Dm
As the sun was set
Gm Dm
and the pieces of light touch your hair
Gm Dm
perfect love come softly
Gm Dm
with the dawn, the dawn
Gm Dm
city once full of people
Gm Dm
desolate, is desolate
Gm Dm
we look back in
Gm Dm
to the ruins where we played
(Gm Dm)
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky
(Gm Dm)
touch your hand
you touch the back of my hand
so many empty nights
just waiting for this, for this
standing there
all heading downsteam
unsteady island
we hear nothing, nothing
(Gm Dm)
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky
(Gm Dm)
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky
