D D/B
And when all this time's on my hands
Cadd9 Dadd9
And dreaming makes the sun fade away
D D/B
I know depending on all my friends
Cadd9 Dadd9
Leads you to wish me to change
D D/B
Its all the same to this simple mind
Cadd9 Dadd9
Leads you to pride and truth
D D/B
And all the things that stay the same
Cadd9 Dadd9
Will steal the breath from you
D D/B Cadd9 Dadd9
D D/B
I'm gonna take all of these rocks and
Cadd9 Dadd9
Throw them into the sea
D D/B
If one should get up and float away
Cadd9 Dadd9
I know thats what I'll need
**Chorus**
G
And I feel
D5
Like I'm someone else
G
And it seems
D5
To be my soul
G
And I feel
D5
That I cannot tell
Bm
If this life is short
A
But a living hell
G
And I feel
D5
That she's to blame
G
For my heart my soul
D5
And my eager frame of mind
Bm
So whats my hurry then
A
Its all these little things that stay the same
And I feel
D D/B Cadd9 Dadd9
D D/B
I'll make some empty promises
Cadd9 Dadd9
And we'll both smile and nod
D D/B
We'd cried how could we get through this
Cadd9 Dadd9
And then we'd laugh at the thought
D D/B
For its love, sweet love, its our common goal
Cadd9 Dadd9
And all these things that stay the same, will steal my soul
*Chorus*
*Chorus 2*
G
And I feel
D5 G
Things have been the same
D5 G
Since she went away
D5 Bm
All I know its just the way
A
She moves across a crowded room
G
And I feel
D5 G
That time and time again
D5 G
All we have are friends
D5 Bm
But oh my God its just the way
A
She moves, its just the way she moves
G D5
And I feel the dark is straight ahead
G D5
But all I have can't be replaced
G D5
And somethings must never change
Bm A
These feelings, about here
G D5
And I hold my heart, in my hands
G D5
Letting life just fall whereever
G D5
And I can't help but wonder if
Bm A
I'll ever fall in love again
D
And I feel.
There it is, in a nutshell. Great song, great artist, check him out!
