Intro
Cb
A# while ago I heard the sound of children's laughter
G#m
Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park
C#m
This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour
F# Cb F#/A#
The sun is going down, it's getting dark
Cb
I realise I'm cold
F#/A#
The rain begins to pour
Cb/D# G#m ( G#m(add9) Gm )
As I watch the windows on the second floor
Fb Fb Cb/D# Cb F#
The lights are on, it's time to go (ohooo..)
F# Cb Fb/G#
It's time at last to let him know
[verse1]
C#m C#m F# F#
C#m F#
I believe it would be fair to say
F# Cb G#m
You look bewildered
C#m A
And you wonder why I'm here today
Fb/G# Cb
And so you should, I would
Fb Cb/D#
When I left I'd had enough
Cb/D# C#m Fb/Cb
But in thе shape and form I ..appear now
A
I have lеarned to cope
Fb/G# A Cb G#
And love and hope is why I am here now
[chorus]
C#
And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
A#m
I'm fired up, don't shut me down
D#m
I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
G# C# G#
I'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down
C#
I'm not the one you knew
G#/C
I'm now and then combined
A#m F# C#/F F#
And I'm asking you to have an open mind (I won’t be the same )
F# C#/F G#/D#
I'm not the same this time around (ohooo..)
G# C#/G# F#/A#
I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[verse 2]
D#m D#m G# G#
D#m G#
Will you leave me standing in the hall
G# C# A#m
Or let me enter?
D#m Cb
The apartment hasn't changed at all
F# C#
I got to say I'm glad
F#
Once these rooms were witness to our love
C#/F D#m F#/C#
My tantrums and increasing.. frustration
Cb
But I go from mad
F#/A# Cb C# A#7
To not so bad in my transformation
