[Verse]
Cadd9
As I look out in the night

Cadd9/Bb
and count the stars all shining bright

F              Bb       F/A             G
I wonder where I am and where I'm going

Cadd9
Sometimes I think I've lived before

Cadd9/Bb
I seem to see beyond a door

F                     Bb     F/A            G
But it's just a crazy notion I leave showing
[Bridge]
Eb                             Cm            F   Bb
I live my life as sensitive as possible till one day

Db                            
Maybe I'll wake up young again

Db/C Bbm           Eb  Ab
with feelings of a new way
[Chorus]
Cadd9
But what we feel I know we'll, miss

Cadd9/Bb
and someday I'll look back at this

F                     Bb       F/A     G                 Ab                F
And know by then the life that we were meant for... but are you leaving

                     C
Leaving my back door
[Verse]
Cadd9
You want the world to give you some

Cadd9/Bb
you fight a war that's never won and you

F                             Bb                     G
Come back scarred 'cause you've seen who's really dying

Cadd9
You reach a point where nothing lasts

Cadd9/Bb                              F
you play a part that someone casts you into

            Bb          F/A      G
Now their machines keep right on lying
[Bridge]
Eb                                   Cm              F   Bb
I want the world to be a place where no one comes to suffer

Db
Just keep the pain and empty space

Db/Bb         Eb  Ab
away from one another
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Let's seal our words within a kiss

Cadd9/Bb
'cause someday we'll look back at this

F                       Bb       F/A     G                        Ab         F7
We'll know by then the life that we were meant for... but are you leaving

Leaving by my back door
