Am                     C
Look in the mirror and tell me
              D    F G
Just what you see
Am                          C
What have the years of your life
              D
Taught you to be
F                  D
Innocence dyin` in so many ways
F                            Em
Things that you dream of are lost
            D      Am
Lost in the haze

Don`t you recall what you felt
                 D
When you weren`t alone

Someone who stood by your side

A face you have known
F                          D
Where do you run when it`s too much to bear

When nobody`s there
