[Verse 1]
Em                 Dsus2
  A change of speed,    a change of style,

C                  Asus2
  A change of scene,    with no regrets,

Em                 Dsus2
  A chance to watch,    admire the distance,

C                Asus2
  Still occupied,     though you forget.

Em                             Dsus2
  Different colours, different shades,

                        C                Asus2
Over each mistakes were made. I took the blame.

Em                          Dsus2
  Directionless so plain to see,

                            C       Asus2
A loaded gun won't set you free. So you say.

[Verse 2] (sing louder)
Em                               Dsus2
  We'll share a drink and step outside,

                            C          Asus2
An angry voice and one who cried,

Em                               Dsus2
  "We'll give you everything and more,

                                        C        Asus2
The strain's too much, can't take much more."

Em                                   Dsus2
Oh I've walked on water, run through fire,

                          C          Asus2
Can't seem to feel it anymore.

       Em     Dsus2
It was me_________,

            C                     Asus2
waiting for me___, hoping for something more,

Em     Dsus2
Me__________,

            C                       Asus2
seeing me this time, hoping for something else.
