D MajorD
We've walked the long road and you've worn it well.
                   G+G
You stitched yourself up when you fell.
 E minorEm
Keep your memories in jars,
A augmentedA
Carry secrets in scars
         D MajorD
Beneath your shell.

D MajorD

D MajorD
You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too.
                  G+G
You weave through fashion and trend.
E minorEm                      A augmentedA
    You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue,
  D MajorD
You've seen it set for the dearest of friends

    You found faith but you, chose to doubt it.
D MajorD              B minorBm
    You found love but you, left without it.

G+G       A augmentedA
And now you don't want, to talk about it.

D MajorD

D MajorD
You travelled down through foreign lands,

Touched mountain tops and golden sand,
                     G+G
Seen pyramids and temples made of stone.
 E minorEm
Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf,
A augmentedA
A majorA treasured book of photographs
D MajorD
In every single one you stand alone.

D MajorD

D MajorD
You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall,

As you watched the decades fall
                       G+G
The letters that you wrote never made it home.

E minorEm
Your birthdays flew past like June,
A augmentedA
With Christmas days in hotel rooms
D MajorD
And new year?s eve with people you don't know.

G+G                 A augmentedA   E minorEm      A augmentedA
    You built friendships but they, sailed without you.
D MajorD                   B minorBm
  You never meant it and that's why, they doubt you.
E minorEm

G+G    A augmentedA
They don't ever talk about you.

D MajorD

E minorEm
You're older than you used to be,
A augmentedA
The mirror weaves a tapestry
D MajorD             F# minorF#m            B minorBm
Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes.
E minorEm              A augmentedA
You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand
F# minorF#m             D MajorD          B minorBm
As if the answer's gonna to fall out of the sky.

E minorEm
But the penny never dropped,
F# minorF#m  G+G    A augmentedA         D MajorD
And no man has ever stopped time flying by.
