Chords with lyrics
Capo: 2nd fret (I've seen him place the capo on the 4th or 5th fret, place it
wherever you're comfortable)
[G+G] I remember a conversation, [E minorEm] at a restaurant
[C majorC] With a friend of mine, he’d a successful mind
[G+G] And he told me of his [D MajorD] life
[G+G] And the plans he’d made to come this far
[E minorEm] Had gone so well and now we’re all so proud of [C majorC] him
And he told me how
But I [G+G] couldn’t bear to [D MajorD] listen
(G+G) Cause all my life I’ve heard
Of the (E minorEm) dreams of the organized
To be the [C majorC] best in the company
To win the [G+G] awards but that’s not me [D MajorD]
Cause [G+G] all my life all I ever [E minorEm] wanted
Was a [C majorC] love that lasted longer than the [G+G] silence
[G+G] All my life, [E minorEm] all my life
[C majorC] Was a love that lasted longer than the [G+G] silence
[G+G] I had to say that I had to leave
Cause [E minorEm] it was on my mind
That all he [C majorC] set in me were insecurities
But that [G+G] dream was never mine [D MajorD]
Cause the plans [G+G] I thought I’d made so far
Had gone [E minorEm] alright but all that I feel now is doubt [C majorC]
And he told me why
But I [G+G] couldn’t bear to listen [D MajorD]
[G+G] Cause all my life I’ve heard
Of the dreams [E minorEm] of the organized
To be the [C majorC] best in the company
To win the [G+G] awards but that’s not me [D MajorD]
Cause [G+G] all my life all I ever [E minorEm] wanted
Was a [C majorC] love that lasted longer than the [G+G] silence
[G+G] All my life, [E minorEm]all my life
