[INTRO]

C5               A5              C5      A5
The way things used to be, well not anymore
F5          C5        C5     A5
Close your eyes, open up your door
C5            A5     C5          A5
Well I?m not tired, I?m coming alive
   C5    C5    A5            G5     F5
But you make up on, let?s go out tonight

C5  C5  A5  G5  F5
C5  C5  A5  C5
C5

C5
These things don?t matter now
       A5            F5
We can leave it all behind
C5
That?s all depending on
          A5                F5
If you?re free to free your mind

     G5                 A5          F5
The crucifix still hung up by the door
     G5                 A5          F5
But Jesus doesn?t come here anymore
      G5              A5             F5
Those memories still hanging on the wall
     G5                 A5              F5
But people there don?t look like us at all

      C5    C5 A5  G5 F5
Don?t need reminding of
     C5     C5 A5     C5
The way things used to be

  C5
I race you to the top
        A5             F5
Then we walk back down again
  C5
Look to the future now
             A5                  F5
Where you?re going, where you?ve been


     G5            A5               F5
The universe is smaller than you think
     G5                A5               F5
So many years spent blind and then you blink
    G5                A5            F5
I promise you we're meant to suffering
     G5             A5                   F5
If you could be my queen, I?ll be your king

      C5    C5 A5  G5 F5
Don?t need reminding of
     C5     C5 A5     C5
The way things used to be

G5                   A5              F5
Take this chance to rest your tired eyes
G5                   A5              F5
Come with me, we?ll move to better skies
G5                    A5           F5
If where we go don?t make a difference
     G5                A5               F5
Just turn around and we?ll come back again

      C5    C5 A5  G5 F5
