D5                                 D5
And when all this time's on my hands
C5                              D5
And dreaming makes the sun fade away
D5                              D5
I know depending on all my friends
C5                        D5
Leads you to wish me to change
D5                              D5
Its all the same to this simple mind
C5                              D5
Leads you to pride and truth
D5                              D5
And all the things that stay the same
C5                              D5
Will steal the breath from you

D5   D5   C5   D5

D5                           D5
I'm gonna take all of these rocks and
C5                        D5
Throw them into the sea
D5                          D5
If one should get up and float away
C5                        D5
I know thats what I'll need

**Chorus**

         G5
And I feel
D5
Like I'm someone else
         G5
And it seems
D5
To be my soul
        G5
And I feel
D5
That I cannot tell
    B5
If this life is short
          A5
But a living hell
         G5
And I feel
D5
That she's to blame
            G5
For my heart my soul
        D5
And my eager frame of mind
            B5
So whats my hurry then
            A5
Its all these little things that stay the same

And I feel

D5   D5   C5      D5

D5                        D5
I'll make some empty promises
C5                        D5
And we'll both smile and nod
D5                        D5
We'd cried how could we get through this
C5                        D5
And then we'd laugh at the thought
D5                        D5
For its love, sweet love, its our common goal
C5                                          D5
And all these things that stay the same, will steal my soul

*Chorus*

*Chorus 2*
         G5
And I feel
D5                        G5
Things have been the same
D5                  G5
Since she went away
D5                        B5
All I know its just the way
                     A5
She moves across a crowded room
        G5
And I feel
D5                        G5
That time and time again
D5                        G5
All we have are friends
D5                         B5
But oh my God its just the way
                        A5
She moves, its just the way she moves


G5                        D5
And I feel the dark is straight ahead
G5                        D5
But all I have can't be replaced
G5                        D5
And somethings must never change
B5                        A5
These feelings, about here
G5                        D5
And I hold my heart, in my hands
G5                        D5
Letting life just fall whereever
G5                        D5
And I can't help but wonder if
B5                        A5
I'll ever fall in love again
            D5
And I feel.

There it is, in a nutshell.  Great song, great artist, check him out!
