It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone
E A
I look around my life tonight and you are gone
E A

E B
How unhappy you'd become
E
Well I was dreaming of you
A
With my heart in your hands
E
And I was following through
C#m B
With my beautiful plans
E A E
Yeah, now I'm rolling down this canyon drive
C#m B
With your laughter in my head
E A E
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
B
'cuz those dreams are dead
E A E A
But I'm alive
E A
I want to go where I will never hear your name
E A
I want to lose my sorrow and be free again
E A
And I know I've been insane
E B
When I think of the places I could've been
E
But I was dreaming of you
A
With my heart in your hands
E
And I was following through
C#m B
With my beautiful plans
E C#m B

A
Standing here by the highway side
E
Watching these trucks blow by

Inches from my face
B E
Yeah, thinking about the time I've wasted
(Dreaming of you)

And the pleasure we once tasted

Looking up and down this road

With your laughter in my head
E A E
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive

'cuz those dreams are dead
E A E A
But I'm alive
E A
Look at the way I believed in you and loved you all these years

E A
And I thought that it would kill me, but I'm alive!
