G Dsus4/F# Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 - (Hold this Cadd9)
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And even though the moment passed me by
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
I still can't turn away
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
Got tossed along the way
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And letters that you never meant to send
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
Get lost or thrown away
Em7 Dsus4/A
And now we're grown up orphans
Cadd9
That never knew their names
Em7 Dsus4/A
We don't belong to no one
Cadd9
That's a shame
Em7 Dsus4/A
But you could hide beside me
Cadd9
Maybe for a while
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9
And I won't tell no one your name
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
And I won't tell em your name
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
Scars are souvenirs you never lose
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
The past is never far
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
Did you get to be a star
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
Is more than who we are
Em7 Dsus4/A
You grew up way too fast
Cadd9
And now there's nothing to believe
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9
And reruns all become our history
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9
And I won't tell no one your name
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And I won't tell em your name
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
And I won't tell em your name
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
Oooooh mmmm mmmm
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
And I won't tell em your name
Instrumental : Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (same as Chorus)
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
I think about you all the time
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 (Hold)
But I don't need the same
G Dsus4/F# Cadd9
It's lonely where you are come back down
Em7 Dsus4/A Cadd9 Dsus4/A G
And I won't tell em your name
