Chords

As recorded by Amy Macdonald (From the 2020 Album THE HUMAN DEMANDS) [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
There's a boy across the street

D
He's just trying to find his way

D
Coming over to my house

D
I see him every day

D
His mum and dad are busy

D
They never have the time

D
To listen to his feelings

D
What's playing on his mind
[Chorus]
        G                      A
All the children stand like statues

       D                      Bm
On the street where I was born

       G                      A
It's a street where nothing changes

        D                     Bm
But the road where I come from

        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling

        F#m                 Bm
And the nights are drawing in

        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen

       F#m         G      D
As the world goes 'round again
[Verse 2]
D
The playground bell keeps ringing

D
A moving van appears

D
A change about to happen

D
That we haven't seen for years

D
A family's moving in

D
I never thought I'd see

D
On the street where nothing changes

D
A girl that looks like me

D
I watch her from across the street

D
I don't know what to say

D
Time will tell if we'll be friends

D
But that's another day
[Chorus]
        G                      A
All the children stand like statues

       F#m                    Bm
On the street where I was born

         G                      A
It's the street where nothing changes

        F#m                   Bm
But the road where I come from

        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling

        F#m                 Bm
And the nights are drawing in

        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen

       F#m         G      D
As the world goes 'round again
[Bridge]
Em           A D        G
Don't change nothing at all

       Em     A    D          G N.C.
Street lights lead me back home

     D   G
Am I dreaming?

      D  G
Is it morning?

     D     G
Am I still here?

     D    G  N.C.
Am I gone?
[out-Chorus]
        G                      A
All the children stand like statues

       F#m                    Bm
On the street where I was born

         G                      A
It's the street where nothing changes

        F#m                   Bm
But the road where I come from

        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling

        F#m                  Bm
And the nights are drawing in

        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen

       F#m                 Bm
As the world goes 'round again

        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling

        F#m                  Bm
And the nights are drawing in

        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen

       F#m         G       D
As the world goes 'round again

       F#m     G      D
And we all go 'round again
