Verse 1:
E
Called you up ten years too late
C#
Just to hear your voice again
B
I know your voice is still the same
I know that something's changed
Verse 2:
My words are choked and full of tears
But still you listen to me dear
And someone's calling you away
And now I understand
Pre-chorus:
F# A
The time that I've wasted
F#
So bitter and faithless
A
Is tearing me down now,
B
Down now
Chorus:
E
So can you hear me?
C#
Or would you sing along
B
Or turn me down
Forget I ever wrote this for you?
E
So can you hear me?
C#
Or has it been too long
B
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song
Verse 3:
Turn it on and off again
And now I lost another friend
You waded through my darkest thoughts
When I was sure to drown
Verse 4:
And now I pass you on my way
And if you stop, what could I say?
Apologies for yesterday
Like a fool, I walk away
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Bridge (fills are played as in the intro):
F# A
And all I understand
F#
We're here and gone again
A
Even through a thousand sleepless nights
F# A
I fill the page with my beliefs
F#
It's all I have to keep
A
Tear it up and start again
Chorus
Coda:
E
I don't pretend to understand
B
All the things I put you through
E
And I don't need forgiveness
B
But I owe one thing to you
A
This is your song
B
This is your song
End on E
