[verse]
F C/E Dm
Today I got myself back.
Gm C
I've been looking so long.
F C/E Dm
Another lonely track
Gm C
got me closer to home.
F C/E Dm
In memory of the day
Gm C
we stopped trying to hide
F C/E Dm
I came today just to say
Gm C
you took the thorn from my side
[chorus]
A# A# - B F C/E Dm (Am/G)
I know it's not easy to be with me
A# F#dim C
But you never stop crossing my mind
A# A D
Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
F A#
The only price to pay
A D
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
F A#
To free my mind from yesterday
A
Let's just say
[verse]
F C/E Dm
Sometime we'll read to the end
Gm C
When all the colour has dried
F C/E Dm
You've been more than a friend
Gm C
Now’s the time for goodbye
F C/E Dm
Would you come to see me
Gm C
Just let me know that you're there
[chorus]
A# A# - B F C/E Dm (Am/G)
I know it's not easy to be with me
A# F#dim C
But you never stop crossing my mind
A# A D
Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
F A#
The only price to pay
A D
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
F A#
To free my mind from yesterday
A
Let's just say
