Fmaj7   Am       E              Am          Fmaj7                  C

   like you must, we all do i've been there too

there's so much i've been through the last couple of years 

(ok for this first part I have absolutely no idea what they're singing but it's the same chord progression 
as before) 

Fmaj7   Am        E               Am 
   ???? ???? ???? with or without me 

Fmaj7       Am                E               Am
