Tom: Em
C
When you're old enough
G
When you've been through it
C
You won't know what it's like
G A
You can't see things the same
G
But you're closer now
C
Did you close your eyes?
G
Did I close them first?
C
You weren't strong enough
Bm Em
I'm no stronger than you
G C Em
But the years take their toll on us all
Em G C A Em
I'm starting to see why you drifted away after all
G
And no one explains to you
Em A
Where the things go that you love
C G C G
'Till they're already gone
C
You held on for us
G
The house gathered dust
C
We were selfish then
G Em
And we held on to things
A
But they're all gone now
C
Did I take too long?
G
Did I ask too much?
C G A
I didn't love you as much as I could
G C A Em
The silence is killing me now
G C A
I'm starting to see why you drifted away after all
G
And no one explains to you
D Em C A
Where the things go that you love
G C A
How many times will I try to pretend that you're here?
G A
And I had a few questions I never got to ask you in time
Em
'Cause you'd already gone
