  			G          D                   C                  Am 
I am not a child, though you treat me as you've always seen me 
C                                                D 
You never saw the changes in a heart grown old and wise 
G                           D          C               Am         
Hey, it's good to see you smile, it's been so long between the pages 
C                                                   D 
Wheels out on the highway, seem to laugh between my lines. 

G                          D                          C      
Do you still want to know where does the love go when it dies? 
                       G  
Hey I want you to know 
Em                     C                        Am 
love never dies it is sheltered here very safe inside 
F                         C                D    
and it's left you with a friend out in the madness 

G                            D 
And you say you love me still 
   
C                                               Am            
how your soul does change and your heart still ponders      
C                                           D 
How I could grow fonder of a life out on my own 
 G                   D            C                   Am 
I still sing the harmony, I'll have another wine and toast this madness 
       C                                   D 
I'll howl out at your moon on my way home alone 
Chorus twice
