[Intro]
E G#m C#m F#m E C#m B E
[Verse 1]
E B C#m F#m
If I had a reason I'd tell you what it is
E A F#m
Must I explain how I feel
E G#m C#m F#m
I've tried and I've tried to make it so clear
E C#m B E
But my time is just wasted I fear
[Verse 2]
E B C#m F#m
Well it's only an old song but it serves it's purpose well
E A F#m
By the cry in your voice I can tell
E G#m C#m F#m
When you sing there's a feeling behind the words
E C#m B E
That brings it all back again
[Bridge]
E B G#m B
I'm reaching, I'm reaching, while you slip away
B
I'm searching for words I can say
G#m B
I'm listening, I'm listening, tryin' not to hear
C#m B
You say that we might meet some day
[Verse 3]
B E B C#m F#m
There's a picture that's faded and curling from it's frame
E F#m G#m A F#m
Of a face that smiles patiently
E G#m C#m F#m
It might smile forever to make me feel better
E C#m B E
But I just might wait to see
[Piano Solo]
E B C#m F#m
E A F#m E
G#m C#m F#m
E C#m B E
[Bridge]
E B G#m B
I'm reaching, I'm reaching, while you slip away
B
I'm searching for words I can say
G#m B
I'm listening, I'm listening, tryin' not to hear
C#m B
You say that we might meet some day
[Verse 4]
B E C#m F#m
There's answers to questions that we both wanna know
E A F#m
But those answers keep evading me
E G#m C#m F#m
There's rhymes and there's reasons, there's rights and there's wrongs
E C#m B E
For being what you are to me
[Verse 5]
E B F#m
If I had a a reason I'd tell you what it is
E F#m G#m A F#m
Would you do the same thing for me?
E G#m C#m F#m
"Cause the minute you go there's one thing I know
E C#m B E
That the day will mean nothing for me
[Outro]
E G#m C#m F#m
E A F#m E G#m
