[Eb] It's been a long time since I watched you [Ab] light so long.
[Eb] I look around my life tonight and you are gone.
I might have done something to keep you if I'd known _ _
how _ unhappy you had become.
_ [Bb]
Well, [Eb] I was yearning with [Ab] my heart in your hands
[Eb] and I was following through with [Cm] my beautiful [Bb] _
[Eb] plans.
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] Yeah, _ _ [Ab] now I'm rolling _ [Eb] this kingdom drive
with [Cm] your laughter in [Bb] my head.
[Eb] _ I'm gonna have to block [Ab] it out somehow
so you can [Eb] survive.
This was a dream [Bb] today and [Eb] I'm alive.

Standing [Ab] here by the highway side
watching _ [Eb] these trucks blow by
inches _ [Cm] from my face
_ [Eb] thinking about the time I was with you
_ and the pleasure we once [Ab] tasted.
_ _ Looking up and down this road
_ [Eb] I've _ [Cm] been [Bb] here before.
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] _ _ I can't be [Cm] here [Bb] no _ [Eb] more.
_ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] Yeah!
_ _ [Ab] _ _
I'm gonna call [Eb] upon your fire
with [Cm] your laughter [Bb] in my head.
[Eb] _ I'm gonna have to [Ab] block it out somehow
so [Eb] you can survive.
_ Cause those dreams are dead and I'm alive.

[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Eb] And I got the way I [Cm] believed in you
and loved you [Eb] all these years.
Now you fill your swimming pool
with all [Ab] my salty tears.
[Eb] You could have told me what was in your heart
[Ab] but baby you lied.
[Eb] And I thought that it would kill [Cm] me
but [Bb] I'm alive.
_ [Ab] _ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ [Ab] _ _
Yeah baby [Eb] I'm [Bb] alive.
_ [Eb] _ [Ab] _ _ _
