A                         B
This night these memories lost and found
                A  (riff 1) F# G A
Are taking over me
                                      B
I could see your picture and hear the sound
       B                A  (riff 1) F# G A
Of the song you sung to me
E                  B
You gotta feel and take every chance
            G
You did the right thing
                        A
Drove a thousand miles away
E                B
Out of trace and in another time
            G
You did the wrong thing
                           A
And bought it back in your mind
D               A     A F# A F#
Why's life so unkind?

A                                B
For always and ever it's getting better
                       A    (riff 1) F# G
I feel your steps with mine
A                                 B
I'm moving on like it said in the letter
                A           (riff 1) F# G
Another place, another time


A G F G A
      A            G           F    G  A
Blown away, blown away, blown away
      A
Blown away  Got blown away, a thousand miles away
