Chords

[Verse]
F#m                           E
As I look out in the night

F#m                                 Bm
and count the stars all shining bright

E               A                    F#m
I wonder where I am and where I'm going

F#m                                         E
Sometimes I think I've lived before

F#m                    Bm
I seem to see beyond a door

E                A                      F#m
But it's just a crazy notion I leave showing
[Bridge]
D                E             A               E    D
I live my life as sensitive as possible till one day

A                                D
Maybe I'll wake up young again

 D                         G
with feelings of a new way
[Chorus]
F#m                              E
But what we feel I know we'll, miss

F#m                               Bm
and someday I'll look back at this

E                     A                             F#m                G
And know by then the life that we were meant for... but are you leaving

E                     Bm
Leaving my back door
[Verse]
F#m                           E
You want the world to give you some

F#m                           Bm
you fight a war that's never won and you

  E                             A                     F#m
Come back scarred 'cause you've seen who's really dying

F#m                              E
You reach a point where nothing lasts

F#m                  Bm
you play a part that someone casts you into

E            A                F#m
Now their machines keep right on lying
[Bridge]
D                        E                         A      E      D
I want the world to be a place where no one comes to suffer

A                                   D
Just keep the pain and empty space

                        G
away from one another
[Chorus]
F#m                           E
Let's seal our words within a kiss

F#m                                  Bm
'cause someday we'll look back at this

E                                               A    F#m                 G
We'll know by then the life that we were meant for... but are you leaving

E                       Bm
Leaving by my back door
[Outro]
E               Bm
I see you leaving…

E Bm
Leaving by my back door

E Bm
Hey!

E Bm
I see you leaving…

E Bm
Leaving by my Back door…
