Intro:
E minorEm D MajorD G+G C majorC
E minorEm D MajorD G+G C majorC


Verse 1:
E minorEm       D MajorD
  Sometimes I wake at night
  G+G                C majorC
And watch the rain fall through the street lights
E minorEm            D MajorD
  'Cause you're standing still in my mind
G+G         C majorC
Fading out, waving goodbye


Chorus 1:
   Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
And I wonder where you are tonight
    D/F#D/F#          E minorEm
If the one you're with was a compromise
     Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
As we're walking lines in parallel
     D/F#D/F#         E minorEm
That will never meet and it's just as well
E minorEm D MajorD G+G C majorC


Verse 2:
E minorEm        D MajorD
  Sometimes I'm overcome
  G+G            C majorC
By every choice I couldn't outrun
E minorEm          D MajorD
  The junctions all disappear
     G+G          C majorC
You can't double back to your summer years

Chorus 2:
   Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
And I wonder where you are tonight
    D/F#D/F#          E minorEm
If the one you're with was a compromise
     Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
As we're walking lines in parallel
     D/F#D/F#         E minorEm
That will never meet and it's just as well

   Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
And I wonder where you are tonight
    G+G            E minorEm    D/F#D/F#
And the one you're with was a compromise
     Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
As we're walking lines in parallel
     G+G           E minorEm    D/F#D/F#
That will never meet and it's just as well, it's just as well

Chorus 3:
   Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
And I wonder where you are tonight
    D/F#D/F#          E minorEm
If the one you're with was a compromise
     Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
As we're walking lines in parallel
     D/F#D/F#         E minorEm
That will never meet and it's just as well

   Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
And I wonder where you are tonight
    G+G            E minorEm    D/F#D/F#
And the one you're with was a compromise
     Am7Am7       Bm7Bm7
As we're walking lines in parallel
     G+G           E minorEm    D/F#D/F#
That will never meet and it's just as well, it's just as well
