[E]
Oh you're born alone and die the same In between can take a while
Only one drop in the sea of time Sometimes makes it hard to smile
You find someone to share your life Things are never quite the same
Years we've travelled seem like days gone past And we've known so little pain
[B]
This finds him time I [C#m] stand alone [B] To the phone I'm holding on
[F#m]

When [E]

I speak softly and smooth and chase the fear And on me you rest your head

[A] impolite
