[G] [Am] [E]
[F] [G] [Am]
All the way [E] back home I'm telling [C] you I [E] caught
[Am] Creeping up behind [D] my shoulder
[Bm] Another [E] day's begun
I [Am] was following [E] a dream
I'd [C] never been in [E] love before
[Am] Chasing darkened [D] skies above [Bm] me
[E] Looking like [C] the spring
[Am] Like the winter [F] and the morning
[Dm]
[G] [E] [Am] If there's [F] a place I wanna [E] go
Then I'll [C] be there with [Am] you
Cause in [F] my dreams the things [G] I'm wishing for [F] keep coming true
[E]
[F] [E] [Am] Now a new [E] day comes
Leaves [C] the darkness and [E] I'm safe
And [Am] the shadows that were [D] sleeping
[Bm] Moon and dance beneath [E] the light
And [Am] I'm trying hard [E] to hide
Keep [C] the sun out of [E] my eyes
Close [Am] them tight and now [D] I'm waiting
For [Bm] the moon [Em] to rise
[Am]
[F] [E] [C] [Am]
[F] [G] [F] [E]
[F] [E] [C] [Am]
[F] [Dm] [G] [E]
[Am] Don't try to say [E] to me
That this [C] was never meant [E] to be
Cause [Am] the days are long [D] where I come from
[Bm] The next few days [E] I'm free
There's [Am] a dream I wanna [E] catch
But it [C] won't leave here [E] for a while
[Am] Till darkness fills [D] the eastern sky
[Bm] The streetlights stretch [E] for miles through [C] the spring
And [Am] the winter and [F] the morning
[Dm] [C] [Am] [F] [Dm]
[C] [Am] [F] [Dm]
[C] [Am] [F] [Dm]
