Intro: Am   C G

Am  
After school
C
Walking home
D
Fresh dirt under my fingernails
Am              C
And I can smell hot asphalt
D
Cars screech to a halt to let me pass
Am           C
And I cannot remember
D
What life was like through photographs
Am        C           D  
Trying to recreate images life gives us from our past


Am     C                     D
       And sometimes it's a sad song

Refr?o:
F             C
But I cannot forget
           Am  
Refuse to regret
       G
So glad I met you
F             C
Take my breath away
              Am
Make everyday
        G
Worth all of the pain that I have

Gone through


F             C
And mama I've been cryin'
        Am                    G
Cause things ain't how they used to be
F
She said the battles almost won
          E
And we're only several miles from the sun


Moving on down the street
I see people I won't ever meet
Think of her, take a breath
Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps
And sometimes it's a sad song

But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain that I have
Gone through
And mama I've been cryin'
Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battles almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun
