  			Intro: G  C  Em  D 

Verso 1:
G 
It just hit me as I lay my head down  
C 
No one around in the dark cold night I hear a sound 
Em 
In my head, repeat track of everything you've ever said 
D 
Must be something, but it's nothing, so I just go back to bed 
G 
It's four, crack the door to the hallway in my dreams 
C 
But it seems that my hallway keeps closing in on me 
Em 
Forcing me out, making me think about you and how you're gone 
D 
I see four-o-five with teary eyes and then I write this song 


G 
And I just can't believe it has to be this way 
C 
You know we say it seems to me that it was just the other day 
Em 
I saw your face and saw your light, you ran the race you fought the fight 
D 
But now It's just being torn down for me tonight 
G 
And I know it might be a little selfish for me to say 
C 
But I need to know if you thought of me at all today 
Em 
'Cause every day I walk past the place you left five days of the week 
D 
And now it's ten after four, and I am taken by sleep 

Verso 2:
G 
Spending hours on end, deciding on what  
C 
I'd say to a friend if I ever saw him again 
Em             
'Cause I don't know if I know, don't wanna come across the wrong way 
D 
And I don't know if I know, but I know I want to see your face today 
G 
Somebody told me that they saw you cry and break down 
C 
Do you know how hard that is to get around and think about? 
Em 
It's not like you to let emotions get the best of things 
D 
Especially when everything is hanging in the air we breathe 


G 
And I just can't believe it has to be this way 
C 
You know we say it seems to me that it was just the other day 
Em 
I saw your face and saw your light, you ran the race you fought the fight 
D 
But now It's just being torn down for me tonight 
G 
And I know it might be a little selfish for me to say 
C 
But I need to know if you thought of me at all today 
Em 
'Cause every day I walk past the place you left five days of the week 
D 
And now it's ten after four, and I am taken by sleep 

Ponte:
G                C 
And I'll sing a song to you my friend 
Em           D 
I'll sing a song to you my friend 
G            C 
I'll sing a song to you my friend 
Em           D       
I'll sing a song to you my... let's go! 
G    C    Em   D 
Yeah yeah yeah yeah 
G                C 
And I'll sing a song to you my friend 
Em           D 
I'll sing a song to you my friend 

( G  C  Em  D )
