F 
The lights change on the hill 
                          Bb9 
The air seems strangely still 
              F 
Everyone’s asleep 

F 
The floorboards creak at dawn 
                        Bb9 
As you walk out on the lawn 
                     F 
The grass is wet beneath 

Dm            C         Bb9 
You think it rather strange 
Dm            C       Bb9 
You think it rather weird 
Bb9 
It’s fair to say that 

C                      F       Bb9 
Nothing is keeping you here 
C                      F       Bb9 
Nothing is keeping you here 
C                      F 
Nothing is keeping you here

F 
The phone is off the hook 
                    Bb9 
As you sink into a book 
                         F 
You don’t know where you are 

F 
From the world; detached 
                   Bb9 
Unto a girl you latched 
                  F 
It never got too far 

Dm       C     Bb9 
And everybody talks 
Dm       C      Bb9 
And everybody stares 
Bb9 
It’s safe to say that 

C                      F       Bb9 
Nothing is keeping you here 
C                      F       Bb9 
Nothing is keeping you here 
C                      Bb9 
Nothing is keeping you here 

Dm       C      Bb9 
And everybody’s dawn 
Dm       C     Bb9 
And everybody cares 
Dm       C          Bb9 
You knew your day to shine 

C                      F       Bb9 
Would come without you here 
C                F    Bb9    C 
Come without you here... 
F      Bb9 
Here... 
C                      F 
Nothing is keeping you here
