Verse 1:
D
Day after day
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
I find myself in this unfamiliar place
Oh how I try
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
But I just can't seem to recognise your face
Fading away
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
Like a photograph forgotten on the wall
What can I say
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7
When the time has come and gone
Pre-Chorus:

All the memories escape me now

Every subject's out of frame

Missing pieces that I'll never find

Like my father

D
Taking a drive
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
On a one way trip to a place you've never been

I guess you lied
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
When you said that you'd be coming home again

Running away
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 D
From a place where everybody knows your name

Isn't it great
Fmaj Bbmaj7
Sometimes you need a change

And when the dust begins to settle down

Everything will feel the same

You can pretend to be someone else

But the memories remain
