[A] [D] [Bm]
[A] [E] [A]
[Bm]
[A] [E] [A]
I walked across [C#m] an empty [Bm] land I knew the pathway [E] like the back of my [A] hand
I felt the [C#m] earth beneath my [Bm] feet sat by the river [E] and it made me complete
[F#m]
Oh simple thing, [C#m] where have you gone?
[D]
I'm getting old and I need something [E] to rely [F#m] on
So tell me when [C#m] you're gonna let me in?
[D]
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere [E] to begin
[A]
I came across a fallen [Bm] tree I felt the branches [A] as they were [E] looking at [A] me
Is this the place we used to [Bm] love?
Is this the place that [E] I've been dreaming of?
[F#]
Oh simple thing, [C#m] where have you gone?
[D]
I'm getting old and I need something [Em] to [Bm] rely [F#] on
So tell me when [C#m] you're gonna let me in?
[D]
I'm getting tired and I need [Bm] somewhere to [E] begin
[Bm]
And if you [A] have a minute, why don't [E] we [Bm] go?
Talk [A] about it somewhere, let me [Bm] know
This can [A] be the end of [E] everything, [Bm] so why don't we go [E] somewhere [A] only we [D] know?
[A] Somewhere [C#m] only we [Bm]
know
[C#m] [E] [F#]
Oh simple thing, [C#] where have you gone?
[D]
I'm getting old and I need something to [E] rely [F#] on
So tell me [C#m] when you're gonna let me in?
[D]
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to [E] begin
[Bm]
And if [A] you have a minute, [E] why don't we [Bm] go?
Talk [A] about it somewhere, let me [E] [Bm] know
This can be [A] the end of [E] everything, [D] so why don't we go?
So why don't [E] we go?
[Bm]
[A] [E] This [Bm]
[A] [E] [Bm]
can be [A] the end of everything, [E] [D] so why don't we go [C#m] somewhere only [A] we know?
[D]
[A] Somewhere only we [Cm] know
[Bm]
Somewhere [C#m] [Bm] only we [D] know
[A]
