[Intro]
F G C Am (x2)
[Verse 1]
F
In a town on the
G
heights
C Am
We met in sound
F G
Let the cover of night
C Am
Draw us down
F G
Further South
C
Where I was young and
Am
caught up
F
In the skies on the
G
way
C Am
I see them now
[Chorus]
F G
I’m not the same
C
nor you with your
Am
little one who
needs more than
love
F G
A mother afraid
C Am
I had it so easy You
were the one who
fought
F G
Was I a better man
C
when you held me
up?
Am
And gave me back more
than time
F G
Was I a better man
C Am
with you sol?
[Intro]
F G C Am (x2)
[Verse 2]
F G
Maybe time has the key
C Am
To one last door
F
Where our eyes cannot
G
meet
C Am
Without being sure
F G
That the sound
C
had always run inside
Am
us
F
From a star out of
G
reach
C Am
I see it now
[Chorus]
F G
I’m not the same
C
nor you with your
Am
little one who
needs more than
love
F G
A mother afraid
C
I had it so easy
Am
You were the one who
fought
F G
Was I a better man
C
when you held me
up?
Am
And gave me back more
than time
F G
Was I a better man
C Am
with you sol?
[Intro]
F G C Am (x1)
[Verse 3]
F
some shimmers hide the
G
way
C
And when the idols are
Am
gone
F G
The sun raises others
the same
C
Knowing well the
Am
silent thought
has no answer, no
F G
Maybe I was too blind
C
To recognise the
Am
buried fire was
lying aglow
F
If I need no
G
forgiveness
C
I’m all but forgotten
Am
Lost in the changing
of the times
F G
With dust on the table
C
Candle quena lies
broken
Am
Waiting on one last
F
songline
G
To live another life,
C Am F
dream it sol
G
Said I’m sorry that I
C
never wrote
Am
though I meant to
F G
I just couldn’t start
C
Most of the time I
Am
spend alone
F
Just trying to make
G C
sense of it all
[Bridge]
Am
Have you ever been
F G C
alone?
no you ain’t ever been
Am
alone
F G
No not really sol
C
No, you ain’t ever
Am
been alone
F G
No not really sol
[Outro]
F G C Am (x3)
