Tom: C
F G
In a town on the heights
C Am
We met in sound
F G
Let the cover of night
C Am
Draw us down
F G
Further South
C Am
Where I was young and caught up
F G
In the skies on the way
C Am
I see them now
[Chorus]
F G
I'm not the same
C Am
nor you with your little one who needs more than love
F G
A mother afraid
C Am
I had it so easy You were the one who fought
F G C
Was I a better man when you held me up?
Am
And gave me back more than time
F G C Am
Was I a better man with you sol?
[Intro]
F G C Am (x2)
[Verse 2]
F G
Maybe time has the key
C Am
To one last door
F G
Where our eyes cannot meet
C Am
Without being sure
F G
That the sound
C Am
had always run inside us
F G
From a star out of reach
C Am
I see it now
[Chorus]
F G
I'm not the same
C Am
nor you with your little one who needs more than love
F G
A mother afraid
C
I had it so easy
Am
You were the one who fought
F G C
Was I a better man when you held me up?
Am
And gave me back more than time
F G C Am
Was I a better man with you sol?
[Intro]
F G C Am (x1)
[Verse 3]
F G
some shimmers hide the way
C Am
And when the idols are gone
F G
The sun raises others the same
C Am
Knowing well the silent thought has no answer, no
F G
Maybe I was too blind
C Am
To recognise the buried fire was lying aglow
F G
If I need no forgiveness
C
I'm all but forgotten
Am
Lost in the changing of the times
F G
With dust on the table
C
Candle quena lies broken
Am F
Waiting on one last songline
G C Am F
To live another life, dream it sol
G C
Said I'm sorry that I never wrote
Am
though I meant to
F G
I just couldn't start
C Am
Most of the time I spend alone
F G C
Just trying to make sense of it all
[Bridge]
Am F G C
Have you ever been alone?
Am
no you ain't ever been alone
F G
No not really sol
C Am
No, you ain't ever been alone
F G
No not really sol
