[A]
[Bm] So [A] I'm [D] standing there [A] with her hands in [F#m] her hair
I [Bm] [A] [D] can't help [A] remember [F#m] just when she touched [G] me
[Em] [D] [A] There's still no face [Em] [D] [A] here in her place
[Bm] So [A] cool, [D] she [A] was like [B] jazz on some [E] stage
[A] Music, [D]
[E] high and sweet, then she just flew [E] away
Now [D] she can't be [A] that one [G#m] with [D] the wind in [A] her arms
But [F#m] I [A] breathe, [E] call [D] on me, call [F#m] on [A] me, [D]

I'm the same boy I used to [A] be
