    Bm                         G
I'm endlessly forgiving of the way I live my life.

    D
I'm late to come to wisdom and I'm late to see the light.

  Bm                                     G
I asked you for your favourite song, you played it to me twice

           D
I knew the words by the time you dropped me home

          Bm                             G
Now those memories are distant but those memories are nice.

D
Stay with me for a minute but I'm running out of time

Bm                               G
Worried about the losses and the love I've left behind.

             D
You know I'm gonе, don't know where I'm going.
[Pre-chorus]
             Em                    D
I could havе sworn I heard it this morning

          G                        D
Like your voice was a part of that wind.

       Em                   D
I felt important when I was yours.

          G                    N.C.
I want it back more than I can admit
[Chorus]
Bm          G               A
      But I think about you often lately.

I have this dream about returning safely.

         Bm              G              A
Will you be there when I walk down that road?

         Em
Will you be there?

          G
Cause I'm so scared that you won't
[Instrumental] Bm G D x2 [Verse 2]
 Bm                              G
Eventually I'll come to see that nothing stays unsaid.

         D
Cause it festers in my spirit till I'm restless in my bed.

Bm                                 G
Dark is kept in business while the joy is left for dead

          D
Cause the proof of that is now you're not around.

Bm                               G
Florence for a minute brought me closer to a god.

D
Closer to the roots of this and why we try so hard

Bm                             G
Cry until our vision is blurry just like the facade.

       D
How it lifts you up until it breaks you down.
[Pre-chorus]
             Em                    D
I could havе sworn I heard it this morning

          G                        D
Like your voice was a part of that wind.

Bm         G              A
  Feel the same as when I left you ancient times.

Bm       G             A
   Had a dream about returning. Is that just my pride?

         Bm              G              A
