Capo: 3rd fret
[Verse 1]
Em G
Hear the clock ticking on the wall
Am Em
Losing sleep, losing track of the tears I cry
G
Every drop is a waterfall
Am
Every breath is a break in the riptide
[Pre-Chorus]
C Bm
Oh, how long has it been?
D
I don't know
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
But it feels like an eternity
G C
Since I had you here with me
Em
Since I had to learn to be
G C
Someone you don't know (Oh)
Em
To be with you in paradise
G C
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Em
Why'd you have to chase the light
G C
Somewhere I can't go?
Em G C
As I walk this world alone
Em G C
As I walk this world alone
[Verse 2]
Em G
Another glimpse of what could've been (Ooh-ooh)
Am
Another dream, another way that it never was
Em G
Falling back in the wilderness (Ooh-ooh)
Am
Waking up, rubbing salt in the cut
[Pre-Chorus]
C Bm
Oh, how long has it been?
D
I don't know
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
But it feels like an eternity
G C
Since I had you here with me
Em
Since I had to learn to be
G C
Someone you don't know
Em
To be with you in paradise
G C
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Em
Why'd you have to chase the light
G C
Somewhere I can't go?
Em G C
As I walk this world alone
Em G C
As I walk this world alone (Alone, Alone)
[Bridge]
C D
It's an endless night, it's a starless sky
Em
It's a hell that I call home (Hell that I call home)
C D
It's a long goodbye on the other side (Ooh)
Em D
Of the only life I know
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
And it feels like an eternity
G C
Since I had you here with me
Em
Since I had to learn to be
G C
Someone you don't know (Oh)
Em
To be with you in paradise
G C
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Em
Why'd you have to chase the light
G C
Somewhere I can't go?
Em G C
As I walk this world alone
Em G C
As I walk this world alone
And it feels like an eternity
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be
Someone you don't know
To be with you in paradise
What I would've sacrificed
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?
As I walk this world alone
Through the morning rain
I stare at photographs and memories we share
Time has changed what it used to be
But my heart still holds on faithfully
And it feels like an eternity
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be
Someone you don't know
To be with you in paradise
What I would've sacrificed
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?
As I walk this world alone
Every song brings back your smile
The way we danced if just for a while
Seasons change, years drift away
But these feelings they choose to stay
Maybe time will heal these scars
Maybe distance makes us who we are
But if you ever turn around
Know that I'll be waiting here somehow
And it feels like an eternity
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be
Someone you don't know
To be with you in paradise
What I would've sacrificed
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?
As I walk this world alone
As I walk this world alone
As I walk this world alone
