What was it you said to me
            Cm                      G7
Back in the days when things looked fine
      Cm                   Fm
'Bout how we would be to - gether
          Cm                 G7
Until we left the earth be - hind

Oh, it's funny how things can change
                Cm                 G7
Cos there was a time I thought I'd be the one
      Cm             Fm
Who'd even start a - gain
    Cm               G7
But now I stay for - ever

Just sunk in the night
     F                C                  G
And though I know you couldn't care, you oughta

Ah, the end of a life
   Eb                                  Bb       F
Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back
               Eb
You might re - call
              Bb                  F
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
           Eb           Bb         F
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
            Eb       Bb         F
In love and harmony, all of our lives?

Bb         F           C

Bb
Come, hold me closely
   F           C
As near as you can
     Bb               F          C
Be - lieving all that we could be
    Bb
And all that we have been
    F              C
And all that we are
