Key: A
Introduction: G Am Dm C F
C
Was it all in real time
Or was it just in my mind
Am
Or was i just a ghost passing through you?
C
Clinging to the wreckage
Until i got the message
Am
Hanging at the edge of the room
(pre-chorus)
G
Give me something that's real
F
Give me half of your bitterest pill
Em
Something from under the surface
Dm F
You actually feel
(chorus)
G Am Dm
We say these words again and again
C F
But they still sound the same
G Am Dm
It was in your eyes, in your eyes
C F
They were just easy lies
(verse)
C
The lightest words are heavy
And promises are easy
Am
And no one's ever happy or sad for very long
C
But just because i said it
It doesn't mean i meant it
Am
I guess that was the way all along
(pre-chorus)
G
I'm just shaping the sound
F
I'm just turning the syllables round
Em
Dipping my toe in the water
Dm F
And watching you drown
(chorus)
G Am Dm
We say these words again and again
C F
But they still sound the same
G Am Dm
It was in my eyes, in my eyes
C F
They were just easy lies
(bridge)
Am F C Em
And it's been a long time waiting
Am F Em
And it's been a lifetime in the making
G AmEm C F
(chorus)
G Am Dm
I said when you are alone and afraid
C F
I will come to your aid
G Am Dm
Was it just a dream, just a dream
C G
'cos was it real to me
G Am Dm
We say these words again and again
C F
But they still sound the same
G Am Dm
Say these words again and again
C F
And again and again
Am
