[Intro]
F#m D E A D A Bm7 E
[Verse 1]
A Let's not drag this out A7 Everything's in motion D A Bm7 Though I've only ever loved you kind E And with devotion A Remember when I met you A7 You were leaving from the start D A Bm7 I thought one day you'd probably just come home E And break my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A It's funny what you know D E And still go on pretending Bm7 With no good evidence A D E You'll ever see that happy ending
[Chorus]
F#m D E A You were looking for your distance D A And sensing my resistance Bm7 E You had to do your will F#m D E A I had to learn the hard way D A Bm7 We were just an empty dream too big D F#m D E A For hope alone to fill
[Verse 2]
A I know I'm a dreamer A So I'll give you that D A Bm7 Still I hope I'm more than just a place E You laid your hat A You're a land of secrets A Its only citizen D A And though I paid my dues Bm7 E I was never allowed in
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm7 A And so I am a stranger D E Especially today Bm A 'Cause I get sad and lonely D E And you get your way
[Chorus]
F#m D E A You were looking for your distance D A And sensing my resistance Bm7 E You had to do your will F#m D E A I, I had to learn the hard way D A Bm7 We were just an empty dream too big D A For hope alone to fill
[Bridge]
G Holding on for change I know D A We never stood a chance G So I could only wait E And watch you slip right through my hands
[Chorus]
F#m D E A You were looking for your distance D A And sensing my resistance Bm7 E You had to do your will F#m D E A I, I had to learn the hard way D A Bm7 We were just an empty dream too big D F#m For hope alone to fill
