D 
The shadows move slowly 
      G 
They climb up the walls 
          D                        G 
Till the light hits the metal and glass 
    D  
It shines through the dust 
   G 
Revealing the love 
      Bm             A          G 
In an old black and white photograph 
          A 
That was before 
         G       A 
But it's not anymore 
 
(Chorus) 
       D           G 
Cause outside the frame 
Bm             A             G 
You're getting on with your life 
   D        G       A 
I wonder if I ever will 
       D         G 
Cause inside my heart 
   Bm         A         G 
I picture us frozen in time 
D            G           A 
Just you and I standing still 
                  G        A 
Now everything's changed 
             Bm     A    D    G     A 
Outside the frame 
       D 
2.The look in your eyes 
G 
Your hand in mine 
          Bm           A        G 
And we're both holding on to a dream 
           D 
I'm still trapped in that moment 
           G 
Where the sun always shines 
      Bm          A          G 
And I don't ever want to be free 
               A 
No, I want to stay 
        G           A 
As the light fades away 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Outside the frame 
Where you're getting on with your life 
And I know that I never will 
Cause inside my heart 
I still picture us frozen in time 
Just you and I standing still 
Now everything's changed 
             Bm      A 
Outside the frame 
        G           D            G 
I keep waiting for something to change 
          D        Bm             G 
But the picture inside stays the same 
         D           A        G 
And the fact of the matter remains 
    A        Bm      A     G      A      D 
Outside the frame
