[E] [C]
[G] [Am]
[C] [G] [Am]
[G] [C] I [G] feel just like an open [Am] book, [C] exposing [G] myself and this [Am] neighborhood.
[G]
[C] [G] Talking to people as if [Am] I knew them well, [G] [C] [D] thinking that everyone is called through [G] different
kinds of help.
[C] [G] Lately I've found myself [Am] in doubt, asking [Em] myself what it's all [Am] about.
[G] [C] What [G] am I doing here, [Am] what's this leading to, [C] [D] what's the point of all of [G] this without you?
Well [F] I've got promises [G] to keep, like [C] a cat I know [Am]
will land [G] upon [D] my feet each time [G] I fall.

[C] [G]
[Am] [C] [D]
[G] [D]
[Gm] Every now and then [C] in dreams,
[Bb] by the river, near [C] a tree, [Bb] leaves in yellow, [C] red and brown,
I hear [Bb] you whisper in my ear, [B]
your love [G] belongs to everyone.
[C] [G] I feel just like an open [Am] book,
[C] a [G] couple of words was all [Am] it took, [G] [C] in front of [G] a bright
[Am] white canvas, [C] staring vacantly now [D] free, against [G] my will.
A [F] drifting vessel in [C] the storm, pushed [F] around from [C] shore to shore, I know [F] there's so much
[C] left to see, I know [F] I've so much [C] left to give, [B] but [G] the memories [Am] remain, yet [C] the scars don't
[D] feel the same, [F] filling pages [Dm] one [C] by one, in [F] the warmth of [C] other sun.
