F#m Adim

Lose themselves in other times

That speak in crowded clues

It cannot be a part of me

Dm A

For now it's part of you

Verse 2:

Careful plays on fields that seem to

Vanish when they're in between

And softly as I walk away

In freshly tattered shoes

It cannot be a part of me

For now it's part of you

Bridge:

C#

[2: Well] Sunshine, ragtime

F#m

Blowing in the breeze

B

Midnight, looks right

E7 E+

Verse 3:

Silhouettes and figures stay

Close to what we had to say

And one more time a faded dream

Is saddened by the news

It cannot be a part of me

For now it's part of you
