Part 1

A                                               C#m
I won't forget the reasons          I went so far to love you
A                                               C#m
A man is most important            When he's unmoved by separation
A                                               C#m
And tries to match the tempo     In which death succeeds creation
A                                               C#m
Burning there to keep you          All I needed was some patience

Part 2

D                                  C#m
When you turned into a woman
            A                      D
When I loved you as a child
D                     C#m
I wanted to protect you
               A                                D              E
From the things that made you smile

Part 3

                   D                E
My little alibi
E
Time couldn't change us
            D                     E
But we tried
                D                 E
My little alibi

I wanna see you cry

Bridge :   A    C#m   A   C#m   Bm/F#   G   Bm/F#   E
