	F#m (244222@1)              Adim (2312xx@1)Lose themselves in other times
	     Bm (x24432@1)               E (022100@1)And waiting hopes cast silent spells
	      Bm (x24432@1)             E (022100@1)That speak in crowded clues
	   Bm (x24432@1)         F (133211@1)It cannot be apart (x02210@1)of me
	    Dm (xx0231@1)              A (x02220@1)For now it's part of you

Verse 2:

	Careful plays on fields that seem to
	Vanish when they're in between
	And softly as I walk away
	In freshly tattered shoes

	For now it's part of you

	           C# (x43121@1)[2: Well] Sunshine, ragtime

	 E7 (020130@1)             E+
	Standing more at ease

Verse 3:

	Silhouettes and figures stay
	Close to what we had to say
	And one more time afaded (x02210@1)dream
	Is saddened by the news
	It cannot be apart (x02210@1)of me
	For now it's part of you
