VERSE:

G

Let's not drag this out

F

Everything's in motion

C (2)Bm/G Am

Though I've only ever loved you kind

D

And with devotion

G

Remember when I met you

F

You were leaving from the start

C (2)Bm/G Am

I thought one day you'd probably just come home

D

And break my heart

BRIDGE:

Am (2)Bm/G

It's funny what you know

C D

And still go on pretending

Am (2)Bm/G

With no good evidence

C D

You'll ever see that happy ending

CHORUS:

Em C

You

D (1)Bm/G

Looking for your distance

C (2)Bm/G

And sensing my resistance

Am D

You had to do your will

Em C

I

D (1)Bm/G

Had to learn the hard way

C (2)Bm/G Am

We were just an empty dream too big

Cm Em

For hope alone to fill

FILL:

[Em C D (1)Bm/G]

VERSE 2: (same as verse 1)

I know I'm a dreamer

So I'll give you that

Still I hope I'm more than just a place

You laid your hat

You're a land of secrets

Its only citizen

and though I paid my dues

I was never allowed in

BRIDGE: (same)

And so I am a stranger

Especially today

Cause I get sad and lonely

And you get your way

CHORUS: (same)

You

Were looking for your distance

And sensing my resistance

You had to do your will

I

I had to learn the hard way

That we were just an empty dream too big

For hope alone to fill

MIDDLE:

F

Holding on for change i know

D G

We never stood a chance

F

So I could only wait

D

And watch you slip right through my hands

CHORUS:

Em C

You

D (2)Bm/G

Were always looking for your distance

C (2)Bm/G

And sensing my resistance

Asus D

You had to do your will

Em C

I

D (2)Bm/G

I had to learn the hard way

C (2)Bm/G Am

We were just an empty dream too big

Cm

For hope alone to fill

OUTRO:

[Em C D (1)Bm/G]

[C (2)Bm/G Am D ]

[G ]
