(To Match Recording)
Intro: (C) (Am) (Dm7) (Gsus4)
Looking (C) back over the (Am) years
Of (Dm7/A) all the things I?ve (G/B) always meant to (C) say
But the (Am) words didn?t come (Dm7) easily (Gsus4)
(G) So many (C) times through empty (Am) fears
Of (Dm7/A) all of the nights I tr(G/B)ied to pick up the (C) phone
So (Am) scared of who might be (Dm7) answering (Gsus4)
You (G) try to live your (G/B) life from day to (Em) day
But (Am) seeing (Am/G) you acr(F)oss the room to(Am)night
Just gives me aw(Gsus4)ay (G) (Gsus4) (G)
Cause the heart won?t (F) lie
Sometimes (Dm) life gets in the (G) way
But there?s (Em) one thing that won?t (Am) change
I know I?ve (G) tried (Gsus4)
(G) The heart won?t (F) lie
You can (Dm) live your alib(G)i
Who can (Em) see you?re lost in(Am)side a foolish dis(Dm7)guise (Gsus4) (G)
The heart won?t (C) lie
Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
Repeat Chorus
