capo: 1st fret
[intro]
G D Em D
[verse (1)]
G
You wouldn’t know
D
But i think of you often
Em
It’s like a line i can’t finish
D
Like i’m wishing for nothing
[verse (2)]
G
It’s been a long time
D
Still can’t come up with something
Em
It’s like i’m stuck in a head rush
D
I’ve got some time i can’t manage
C D
And i won’t even try
[verse (3)]
G
Did you feel the sunset
D
Beaming on your way in?
A
Did you get your lover back
D
And laugh about it in the end?
G
Did you feel the wonder?
D
Did you let go of your hurt?
A
Did you hear your daughters cry for you?
D
Love is when they think of you
[verse (4)]
G
You wouldn’t know
D
But your presence is quiet
Em
If i stay still, i can feel it
D
Like it’s speaking in silence
G
It’s been a long night
D
Now i’m imprisoned to morning
Em
I could do anything
D
It just seems too uncertain
C D
So i won’t even try
[verse (5)]
G
I stared up at the moon
D
For a little while and wondered
A
If maybe you were looking too
D
Well maybe you were looking too
G
I thought about that night
D
When you told me about your big plans
A
And all of the things you were going to do
D
And i knew i believed in you
[verse (6)]
G
All of my years keep slipping away, slipping away
D
One in the same
G
All of my years keep slipping away, wrestling me
D
They've got too much to take
G
It’s been this way before
D
Pulling out the thorns
Em
They say that there’s a reason for it
C
But i don’t know no more
G
I saw strangers passing by
D
I took their heartache all as mine
Em
And i felt the rain coming down hard
D
I heard your voice
G
Too young to say goodbye
D
Too young to say goodbye
Em
Too young to say goodbye
D
You were too young to say goodbye
[verse (7)]
G
I stood on your front porch
D
Talking to your brother
A
I don’t see him much anymore
D
Things have changed since you’ve been gone
G
Maybe we learned the hard way
D
Or maybe it was a mistake
A
It doesn’t matter either way
D
It was what i wanted anyway
[verse (8)]
G
All of my years keep slipping away, slipping away
D
One in the same
G D
All of my years keep slipping away
G
So i will tell you when i’m done
D
Tell you when i’m done
G
So i will tell you when i’m done
[Verse 1]
You wouldn't know
But I think of you often
It's like a line I can't finish
Like I'm wishing for nothing
And it's been a long time
I still can't come up with something
Like I'm stuck in a head rush
I've got some time I can't manage
And I won't even try
[Verse 2]
Did you feel the sunset beaming on your way in?
Did you get your lover back and laugh about it in the end?
Did you feel the wonder?
Did you let go of your hurt?
Did you hear your daughters cry for you?
Love is when they think of you
[Verse 3]
You wouldn't know
But your presence is quiet
If I stay still, I can feel it
Like it's speaking in silence
And it's been a long night
Now I'm imprisoned to morning
I could do anything, it just seems too uncertain
So I won't even try
[Verse 4]
I stared up at the moon for a little while and wondered if maybe you were looking too
Well, maybe you were looking too
I thought about that night when you told me about your big plans
And all of the things you were gonna do
And I knew I believed in you
[Chorus]
My years keep slipping away, slipping away
One in the same
And all my years keep slipping away
Wrestling me, they got too much to take
[Post-Chorus]
It's been this way before, pulling out the thorns
They say that there's a reason for it but I don't know no more
I saw strangers passing by
I took their heartache all as mine
And I felt the rain coming down hard
Yeah, I heard your voice, too young to say goodbye
Too young to say goodbye
Too young to say goodbye
Too young to say goodbye
[Verse 5]
I stood on your front porch, talking to your brother
I don't see him much anymore
But things have changed since you've been gone
Maybe we learned the hard way or maybe it was a mistake
It doesn't matter either way
It's what I wanted anyway
[Chorus]
And all my years keep slipping away, slipping away
One in the same
And all my years keep slipping away
(I will tell you when I'm done, tell you when I'm done)
So I will tell you when I'm done
