[Intro] A,F#m,D,A,E
[Verse]
A
Time of day I can't recall,
F#m
the kind of thing that takes its toll.
Over years and over time,
D
over smiles and over wine.
A
All in all it wasn't bad,
E
all in all it wasn't good,
E7
but I still care.
A
That's the problem with the days
F#m
they're never long enough to say,
what it is you never said,
D
all the books you never read.
A
I throw myself into the wind
E
hoping somebody might pick me up
E7
and carry me again.
[Chorus]
A F#m
Where are you now?
D
you let me down?
A E
Do you make me grieve for you?
A F#m
Do I make you proud?
D
Do you get me now?
A E(strum)
Am I your pride and joy?
[Verse 2]
A
I believe this to be true
F#m
there’s nothing sacred, nothing new.
No one tells you when its time.
D
There are no warnings, only signs.
A
Then you know that you're alone,
E
you're not a child anymore,
E7
but you're still scared.
A
All your mountains turn to rocks.
F#m
All your oceans turn to drops.
They are nothing like you thought;
D
you can't be something you are not.
A
Life is not a looking glass.
E
Don't get tangled in your past,
E7
like I am learning not to.
[Chorus]
A F#m
where are you now?
D
Do you let me down?
A E A
Do you make me grieve for you?
A F#m
Do I make you proud?
D
Do you get me now?
A E A
Am I your pride and joy?
[Outro]
Ohhhhhh ahhhhhhhhaahhhhh
A(from above) F#m, F#5, D,
A, F#m, F#5, E
