[Verse 1]
[G]Let's not drag this out
Everything's in mo[Gsus4]tion
[C]Though I've only [G]ever loved you kind
[Am]And with devotion[Dsus4][D]
I re[G]member when I met you
And even from [Gsus4]the start
I thought [C]one day you'd prob
[G]ably just come home
[Am]And break my h[Dsus4]eart
[D]It's

[Verse 2]
[Am]funny what you know
[G]And [C]still go on pre[Dsus4]tending
[G]With no [Am]good evidence
[G]You'll ever see[C] that happy end[D]ing

[Verse 3]
[Em]You[C]
[D]Looking for your dis[G]tance
And [C]sensing my res[G]istance
You [Am]had to do your w[D]ill

[Verse 4]
[Em]I[C]
[D]Had to learn [G]the hard way
[C]We were just [G]an empty
dream too [Am]big
[Cm]For hope alone to fill
[Em][C][D][C][G]

[Verse 5]
I know I'm a dreamer
(i know that I'm a)
So I'll give [Gsus4]you that
(dreamer)
[C]Still I hope [G]I'm more than just a place
[Am](still I hope I'm more)
You laid your hat
[D](than a place you laid you[G]r hat)
You're a land of secrets
(you are its only)
Its only citizen
[Gsus4](citizen)
And though [C]I paid my dues
[G](though I paid)
I was [Am]nev er allowed i[D]n
(i was never allowed in)
And [Am]so I am a [G]stranger
(so I am a stranger)
[C]Especially today
(espe[Dsus4]cially today)
[D]As [Am]I get sad and[G] lonely
And [C]you get your [D]way

[Verse 6]

Were [D]looking for your dis[G]tance
And [C]sensing my res[G]istance
You [Am]had to do your w[D]ill

I [D]had to learn [G]the hard way
That [C]we were just an [G]empty
dream too [Am]big
[Cm]For hope alone [G]to fill

[Verse 8]
[F]Holding on for change I know
We [C]never stood a [G]chance
(no we never stood a chance)
So [F]I could only wait
And watch you slip [D]right
through my hands
[Em](watch you [C]slip right through my hands)

[Verse 9]
You [D]Were always
looking for your dis[G]tance
And [C]sensing my res[G]istance
You [A]had to do your [D]will

[Verse 10]
[Em]I[G][C]
I [D]had to learn [G]the hard way
[C]We were just [G]an empty dream too [Am]big
