INTRO: G F/G  C/G G  G F/G  C/G G (2x) 
 

      G        F/G       C/G      G    G F/G  C/G G  
I can feel you slipping away from me 
  G          F/G         C/G   G    G F/G  C/G G  
A little bit further now every day 
    G       F/G       C/G     G     G F/G  C/G G  
I'm holding on, but I can't believe 
G       F/G     C/G        G    G F/G  C/G G  
This is how you want it to be 

F C                    G

   G          F/G            C/G        G    G F/G  C/G G  
It feels like walking down a long, dark road 
    G             F/G            C/G   G    G F/G  C/G G  
You never talk to me the way you did before 
    G                F/G            C/G       G    G F/G  C/G G  
You ride through the city with your head held high 
    G         F/G         C/G    G    G F/G  C/G G  
And all I can do is watch you go by
