Capo 4
  
Intro:  G C x 2

   G                     C
So this is how the story went
  Em                   D
I met someone by accident
   C         G
who blew me away
   Em        D
who blew me away

         G            C
It was in the darkest of my days
                 Em          D
When you took my sorrow and you took my pain
     C        G               Em         D
And buried them away,  you buried them away

        C                     D
And I wish I could lay down beside you
    Em            G
When the day is done
     C            D                Em           G  
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
         C                 D
But like everything I've ever known
   Em             G
you'll disappear one day
        C                  D             Am       G
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away

I dropped you off at the train station
And put a kiss on top of your head
I watched you wave
I watched you wave
Then I went on home to my skyscrapers
Neon lights and waiting papers
That I call home
I call that home

I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known
You'll disappear one day
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
Away

I woke up feeling heavy hearted
I'm going back to where I started
The morning rain
The morning rain
And though I wish that you were here
On that same old road that brought me here
Is calling me home
Is calling me home

I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known
You'll disappear someday
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart 
away
