Em Eb (x2)
[Verse]
Em Eb C Bb Am7
It's quiet now, and what it brings is everything
Em Eb C Bb Am7
comes calling back a brilliant night, I'm still awake
Em Eb C Bb Am7
I looked ahead I'm sure I saw you there
Em Eb C Bb Am7
you don't need me to tell you now, that nothing can compare
[Chorus]
G D
you might have laughed if I told you
C Am
you might have hidden the frown
G D
you might have succeeded in changing me
C Am
I might have been turned around
G D
It's easier to leave than to be left behind
C Am
leaving was never my proud
G D
leaving New York never easy
C Am
I saw the life fading out
[Verse]
Em Eb C Bb Am7
now life is sweet and what it brings I tried to take
Em Eb C Bb Am7
the loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in way
Em Eb
and on our lost till in my eyes, shadow of necklace across your thigh
C Bb Am7
I might have lived my life in a dream, but I swear... this is real
Em Eb
Memory fuses in shatters out glass, but carry your future, forget the past
C Bb Am7
but it's you, it's what i feel.
[Ulangi Chorus]
Em Eb

you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart

G D
I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart)
C Am
I told you ,I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change)
G D
I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart)
C Am
I told you, I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change)
