Key: C
Introduction: C G Em D C G
Em D4 D C G
Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer
Em D4 D C G
I was taken by a photograph of you
Em D4 D C G
There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more
Em D4 D C G
But they didn?t show your spirit quite as true
Bm G C G
You were turning ?round to see who was behind you
Bm D D/C
And I took your childish laughter by surprise
Bm7 C/G C D Em
And at the moment that my camera happened to find you
Am7 C G C G
There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes
Em D4 D C G
Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small
Em D4 D C G
Though it hasn?t really been that long a time
Em D4 D C G
What I was seeing wasn?t what was happening at all
Em D4 D C G
Although for a while, our path did seem to climb
Bm G C G
But when you see through love?s illusions, there lies the danger
Bm D D/C
And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool
Bm7 C/G C D Em
So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger
Am7 C
While the loneliness seems to spring from your life
G D
Like a fountain from a pool
C G/D D#°7 Em D
Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve had to hide sometimes, but now you?re all right
G C/G C G/B Am7
And it?s good to see your smiling face tonight
Em D4 D C G
Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams
Em D4 D C G
But that magic feeling never seems to last
Em D4 D C G
And while the future?s there for anyone to change, still you know it?s seems
Em D4 D C G
It would be easier sometimes to change the past
Bm G C G
I?m just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you
Bm D D/C
In my lessons at love?s pain and heartache school
Bm7 C/G C D Em
Where if you feel too free and you need something to remind you
Am7 C
There?s this loneliness springing up from your life
G D
Like a fountain from a pool
C G/D D#°7 Em D
Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve had to hide sometimes but now you?re all right
G C/G C G/B Am7
And it?s good to see your smiling face tonight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You?ve had to struggle, you?ve had to fight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
To keep understanding and compassion in sight
C G/D D#°7 Em D
You could be laughing at me, you?ve got the right
C G/D D#°7 Em D
But you go on smiling so clear and so bright
