[Intro]: G D C G D x2
[Verse 1]:
G D
What if love could never fade?
C G D
Our stomachs always kept the butterflies we had on our first date
G D
Then you’d have never slipped away
C G D
What’s now a cloudless empty sky would signify a brighter day
Em C D
How do you know when it’s time to give in?
Em C D
How do you know when it’s time?
[Chorus]:
G D C G D
Hey, little one, here’s to a moment of life in a year come and gone
G D C G D
I’ll miss you my friend; I’ll learn to stand on my own ‘til I find love again
C G D
Here’s to good times, little one
C G D
Here’s to goodbye, little one
C G Em D G
Here’s to the year you were my little one
[Verse 2]:
G D
Warmer weather eases pain
C G D
But you gave the coldest shoulder as you showed that seasons change
G D
Just a year ago today
C G D Em
You’d brought hope for warmer winters; New York City last December paved the way
C D
How do you know when it’s time to give in?
Em C D
How do you know when it’s time?
[Chorus] (Omit last G chord)
[Bridge]:
Em C G D
The time to overcome is well overdue
Em C G D
Out with the old, independently new
Em C G D C
But I’d rather be depressed than happy without you
D
Oh God, please carry me through
G D Em C D
Ohooh ohooh ohooh ohooh ohoohwooah
[Chorus 2]:
G D C G D
Hey, little one, here’s to a moment of life in a year come and gone
A E D A E
Hey, little one, here’s to a moment of life in a year come and gone
A E D A E
I’ll miss you my friend; I’ll learn to stand on my own ‘til I find love again
D A E
Here’s to good times, little one
D A E
Here’s to goodbye, little one
D A F#m E A
Here’s to the year you were my little one
E F#m D
Ohooh ohooh ohoohwooah
A E F#m D
Ohooh ohooh ohoohwooah
A E F#m D E A
Ohooh ohooh ohoohwooh ohoohwoah
[Outro]:
A E
What if this was just a dream?
D A E
When I awakened from this nightmare you were lying next to me?
A E
Things would change if that were true
D E A
Rather than holding onto memories, I’d be holding onto you
