[C] [F#] [E]
watched [A] the [Em] western sky, [A] the sun is [E] sinking, the [F#m] geese are flying south, [E] it sets me [F#] thinking,
[Em]
I did not miss you [A] much, I [E] did not [F#] suffer,
[D#m] [E] what did not [F#m] kill me, just [C#m] made me [E] tougher,
I feel the winter come, is [A] ice is [Em] still used, [E] now [Am] in the [F#m] fire lights, [E] the case [F#] continues,
[E]
Another night in [A] court, the [E] same [F#m] old trial,
[D#m] [E] the same old [F#m] questions asked, the [E] same denial,
The shadows close me round, [A] like jewelry [E] members, I look for [F#m] answers in [E] the fires [F#] [Em] embers,
Why was I [A] missing them, that [E] whole [Am] [F#m] December,
[B] I give my [A] usual line, I [C#m] don't [F#m] [E] remember,
[C#m] Another winter comes, his icy [B] fingers creep, [A] into these bones of [B] mine, these [E] memories never sleep,
And all these differences, I cloak [B] I borrowed,
[C#] we kept [A] our distances, why [E] should it [A] follow,
[E] I must have loved you,
What is the force that binds the stars, I wore this mask to [B] hide [E] my [A] scars,
What is the fire that pulls the tide, never could find a place to [B] hide,
[C#m] What moves the earth around [E] the sun, what could I do but run and run and [A] run,
Afraid to love, afraid to fear, what match could I see,
[E] The moon's [F#] a fingernail, and slowly sinking, another [C#] day begins, and now [D#m] I'm thinking,
That this [B] indifference, was my [C#] invention, when everything [D#m] I did, sought your [C#] attention,
You were my [F#] compass straw, you were my measure, you were a [C#] pirate's man, a buried [D#m] treasure,
If this was [B] all correct, the last [C#] thing I'd [F#] expect, [C#] the [B] prosecution rests, it's time that [C#] I confess,
I must have [F#] loved you, I must have loved you, I must have loved you,
