Chorus:
              F#m  E     A
We used to be giants
            D  E    F#m
When did we stop?
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D          E     F#m
You know I never forgot



Verse 1:
F#m              E
The hope and the hurt
D    E              F#m
Has lived inside of me
F#m                     E
But there’s gold in the dirt
        D         E      F#m
I never took the time to see
F#m                E             D       E        F#m
But I knew of its worth when you walked beside of me
       F#m           E
And my hand fits in yours
        D         E         F#m
Like a bird would find the breeze

Chorus:
              F#m  E     A
We used to be giants
            D  E    F#m
When did we stop?
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D         E     F#m
You know I never forgot
                        F#m  E     A
We were the song of the silence
                D  E   F#m
But time catches up
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D         E     F#m
You know I never forgot



Verse 2:
F#m*            E*
I knew from the start
                  D      E      F#m
That you’d be the one to set me free
F#m             E
That day in the park
         D          E         F#m
When the hurt would hide from me
F#m                 E
Those eyes used to know me, it’s been way too long
D            E           F#m
You are the moon and the stars, and they all gaze upon
F#m                   E                            D     E               F#m
Time won’t ever move slowly, what you waiting on? Yeah, what you waiting on?



Chorus:
              F#m  E     A
We used to be giants
            D  E    F#m
When did we stop?
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D          E     F#m
You know I never forgot
                        F#m  E     A
We were the song of the silence
                D  E   F#m
But time catches up
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D          E     F#m
You know I never forgot



Bridge:
E                    A
Darling just say you will
                        E
Will you remember those times?
                       E
That I have held until tonight
               A                       E
If you say you will, I’ll leave it all behind

Don’t you remember those times?



Chorus:
              F#m*  E*     A*
We used to be giants
            D*  E*    F#m*
When did we stop?
     F#m*      E*       A*     E*
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D*         E*    F#m*
You know I never forgot
                        F#m  E     A
We were the song of the silence
                D  E   F#m
But time catches up
     F#m       E        A       E
Just say the word and I’ll be yours
D          E     F#m
You know I never forgot
