*******verse 1*****************
A
Sun came up and five years gone
Asus4 A
Life goes on yeah life goes on
E A
I wonder how you're getting by
A
Sun goes down and I feel blue
Asus4 A
Now I toss, 'cause my mind's on you
E A
And I kind of miss your broken smile
*******bridge********************
Asus4 A
Save part of yourself for me
Dmin A
Won't you save part of yourself for me
******chorus*******************
progression for the "oohs"
A, Asus4, A, E, A....
*******verse 2*****************
A
I remember you and me
Asus4 A
Lost and young and dumb and free
E A
And unaware of years to come
A
Just a whisper in the dark
Asus4 A
On the pavement in the park
E A
You taught me how to love someone
*****repeat bridge**********
*****repeat chorus 2x*********
*******verse 3*****************
A
When we walk into the sun
Asus4 A
Or burn below for what we've done
E A
Will you still call out for me?
A
Turn to light or fade to black
Asus4 A
Don't look back no you don't look back
E A
and what you might not want to see
*****repeat bridge**********
*****repeat chorus 2x*********
A
Sun goes down and five years gone
Asus4 A
Life goes on, yeah life goes on
E A
I hope you caught up with your dreams
******repeat bridge**************
(finish on an A)
