Verse 1:

   C                  E
If I say I miss you, I know that you won't,
           Am
Well, it's two cents a minute,
 G                         F
Stay on the phone for the chance that I'll catch you,
     G                     C
Tell you how much that I've grown.

   C                  E
I'll pass you a tissue and lift away tears
       Am                    G
As you tell me how love gets stronger with years,
F                       G                    C
Count on my fingers the people who come to my mind.

    C                        E
And you'll pay the taxi I'll reach for my wallet,
Am                      G
Tell me dont worry son, know that I got it,
F                         G                      C
Swear one day I show you, God yeah I turned out alright.

Chorus:

C    E             Am              G
Oh I seldom find a place to rest my fears.
    C       E              Am                G
But in that silver line, I feel your presence near
     C                       E
Well I broke the glass and I lifted the mast
      Am                 G
and I sailed away with my dear.
  C                              E
I looked at the sky, prayed that I'd find your eye,
       Am                 G
Said I did it for you, you here.

Verse 2:

     C                            E
Well you said I'm grown, now, yet I feel the same,
     Am                    G
It's easy to see the years carved in my face
       F                  G                         C
Oh the wrinkles remind me one day we'll all fade to grey
      C                     E
Still I can't help hate the relentlessness time,
   Am                       G
Oh she waits for no one, no matter how high,
       F                            G                          C
But at least we're all equal to the one who gives and takes our lives
C                        E
Now I lay here crying on top of your stone,
     Am                            G
As I curse at the fickle world for taking you home,
   F                       G                     C
By God yea I had something left that I needed to say

Chorus:

C    E             Am              G
Oh I seldom find a place to rest my fears.
    C       E              Am                G
But in that silver line, I feel your presence near
     C                       E
Well I broke the glass and I lifted the mast
      Am                 G
and I sailed away with my dear.
  C                              E
I looked at the sky, prayed that I'd find your eye,
       Am                 G
Said I did it for you, you here.

   C                      E
So I'll tell your story until my time comes,
       Am                          G
'Cause you'll live forever, through words on a tongue,
   F                     G                       C
Ya you'll be remembered, moon's coming after the sun
     C                     E
I'll give you my glory, my pride and my fame
     Am                      G
It's just an old picture, it never got framed,
    F                     G                         C
But oh, what a picture, a picture that proved I was made.
    C                    E
I'll get up and hurry and say my goodbyes,
    Am                      G
And stop playing poker when dealing with lives,
     F                      G                         C
Just say how you love them, say it with tears in your eyes.

Chorus:

C    E             Am              G
Oh I seldom find a place to rest my fears.
    C       E              Am                G
But in that silver line, I feel your presence near
     C                       E
Well I broke the glass and I lifted the mast
      Am                 G
and I sailed away with my dear.
  C                              E
I looked at the sky, prayed that I'd find your eye,
       Am                 G
Said I did it for you, you here.
