Verse
=====
B5     D5            E5 - Em9 - E5
I open up my eyes to see,

B5     D5            E5 - Em9 - E5
You open up your arms to me.


Lift
====
          A5
And I can feel from the way you hold me,

D5             E5
That your somewhere else,

       A5
You're leafing through my pages,

        D5            E5
Leaving me up on the shelf


Pre Chorus
==========
F#5           E5
How long will this go on,

F#5           E5
Before you leave.

Chorus
======
   A5                   E5
We squander invaluable time,

              F#5
Drifting on a cloudy sea,

D5
Aimlessly,

    A5                  E5
And ponder the nursery rhyme,

                     F#5
Feeling like/that we might be free,

D5
Thoughtlessly,

E5              F#5
Eyes wide open never to see,

D5
No future,

              A5
All we are is history.


Verse2
======
I open up a heart for sale,
But open up the door as well.

Lift2
=====
And if you leave please just leave,
And don't pretend that it's just you.

I'm finishing this chapter,
So I can start a new.

How long will this go on,
'Till I'm alone.

Chorus2
=======
We squander invaluable time,
Thinking that we hold the key,
Foolishly,
And wander, through life in design,
Dressed up like a Christmas tree,
Shamelessly,
The tragedy, the comedy,
No future,
All we are is history.
