[Dm] Once there were [Am] times, love, when we [F] could touch the air between
[Dm] And out [Am] across this room, we'd fill [Bb] the space with all our schemes
[Dm] And if we [Am] just touched hands, [Bb] light could shine [C] with [Bb] electric dreams
[C]
[Dm] No matter how [Am] many miles, nothing [F] hurt long distance hearts
[Dm] For there was [Am] always something [Bb] there that space could never keep apart
[Dm] And now I [Am] know inside that [Bb] something's dying
[C] When we're [Bb] apart, all we have [F] are empty [F] spaces
[Em]
[Dm] [F]
[Eb]
[Dm] It's not like we're [Am] building walls too [Bb] hard to climb to make us blind
[Dm] There's just so [Am] much numbing space [Bb] to hollow out the heart of mind
[Dm] And I can [Am] hear echoes of [Bb] ghosts of [C] love we left [Bb] behind
[C]
[Dm] I'll always [Am] love April, [F] we fell in love and we planted [Bb] seeds
[Dm] And now we [Am] walk through fallen [F] trees and leaves are crushed beneath
[Dm] And I will [Am] always live [Bb] in autumn, [C] now [Bb] we've agreed
All we have are empty [F] spaces
[Em]
[Dm] [F]
[Eb]
[C] I thought this was meant to be, [Dm] a love out of energy
[C] But only as time evolved, [Dm] and all of our strength dissolved
And [Gm] we'll never feel the flame that [Bb] burns so naked again
[C]
[Dm] I walk through Kansas [E] town and [Bb] all the rain rain pouring down
[Dm] And so many [D] people here, [Bb] but space like this I've never found
[Dm] And as I [D] get back home and [Bb] step inside
[C] I [Bb] realize all I have [F] [F]
are empty spaces
