D

Saw my life this morning

G

Lying at the bottom of a drawer

D

All this stuff I'm saving

Em C G

God knows what this junk is for

Em Am

And whatever I believed in

D G

This is all I have to show

Em Am

What the hell were all the reasons?

C

For holding on for such dear life

C

Here's where I let go

G

I'm not running

C

I'm not hiding

G

I'm not reaching

D G

I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open

C

Gonna pull my soul in

Em D/F# G

And I'm al - most home - Repeat Intro

D

And I saw you this morning

G

You were staring back at me

D

>From an ancient photograph

Em C G

Stuck between some letters and some keys

Em Am

And I was lost for a moment

In the ache of old good-byes

Em Am

Sometimes all that we can know is

C -

There's no such thing as no regrets, and baby it's alright
