AIn (x02220@1)the calling out to one another
       F#mAll (244222@1)the lovers up and down the strand
DIn (xx0232@1)the sound of the waves and the cries
       EOf (022100@1)the seagulls circling the sand

AIn (x02220@1)the fragments of the songs
                 F#mCarried (244222@1)down the wind from some radio
DIn (xx0232@1)the murmuring of the city in the distance
EOminous (022100@1)and low

A (x02220@1)                   F#m (244222@1)
I hear the sound of a world where we played
        D (xx0232@1)                         EAnd (022100@1)the far too simple beauty of the promises we made

F#m (244222@1)             DIf (xx0232@1)you ever need holding
A (x02220@1)           ECall (022100@1)my name, I'll be there

F#m (244222@1)            DIf (xx0232@1)you ever need holding
       A (x02220@1)                        EAnd (022100@1)no holding back, I'll see you through

A   F#m

Repeat intro

AWhere (x02220@1)the touch of the lover ends
        F#mAnd (244222@1)the soul of the friend begins
          DThere's (xx0232@1)a need to be separate and a need to be one
      EAnd (022100@1)a struggle neither wins

AWhere (x02220@1)you gave me the world I was in
      F#mAnd (244222@1)a place I could make a stand
              DI (xx0232@1)could never see how you doubted me
         EWhen (022100@1)I'd let go of your hand
A (x02220@1)       F#mYeah, (244222@1)and I was much younger then
      D (xx0232@1)                 
And I must have thought that I would know
   EIf (022100@1)things were going to end
F#m (244222@1)                 DAnd (xx0232@1)the heavens were rolling
A (x02220@1)               ELike (022100@1)a wheel on a track
F#m (244222@1)              DAnd (xx0232@1)our sky was unfolding
A (x02220@1)                   E (022100@1)And it'll never fold back

A (x02220@1)          F#mSky (244222@1)blue and black
D (xx0232@1)   E//music (022100@1)w/o lyrics//
