[D]
[C] [G] I can't seem to recognize your face,
[D] [G]
I'm faintly familiar yet,
I can't seem to place it,
[D] Can [G] I find a candle of thought
to light your name?
[D]
[G] Lifetimes are catching up with me,
[C] All [G] [A] these changes [C] taking place,
[A] I wish I'd seen [Em] the place,
[A] But no one's [Em] ever taken me,
[D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
[C]
Fade [G] away,
[D]
[G] Hearts and thoughts they fade,
[C]
Fade [G] away,
[D] I [G] swear I recognize your breath,
[D]
[G] Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising,
[D]
Of [G] course you can't see me,
[C] For I'm [G] not my former,
[D]
It's hard [G] when you're stuck upon the shelf,
I've changed, [A] but I'm not changing [Em] at all,
[A] Small town predicts [Em] my fate,
[A] Perhaps that's what no [E] one wants [Em] to see,
[D] I [G] just wanna scream,
[C]
[G] Hello, [D] my [G] God it's been so long,
Never dreamed to return,
[D] But [G] now here you are,
[C] Here [G] I am,
[D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
[C] Fade away,
[G] [D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
[C]
Fade [G] away,
[D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
[C] Fade [G] away,
[D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
Hearts [D]
[G] and thoughts they fade,
[C] Fade [G] away,
[D] Hearts [G] and thoughts they fade,
they [C]
fade [G] away
[D] hearts and [G] thoughts they fade
[C] [G] fade.
