Key: C
Introduction:
D Em D D/C#
On my own, pretending hes beside me,
Bm E A
All alone, I walk with him till morning,
G F#7 Bm
Without him, I feel his arms around me,
Em A
And when I lose my way I close my eyes and he has found me.
D Em/D D D/C#
In the rain the pavement shines like silver
Bm E7 A A/G#
All the lights are misty in the river
G F#7 Bm
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
Em Em/D A
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever
Bb G#7 Bb Bb/A
And I know its only in my mind,
Gm Gm7 Eb
That Im talking to myself and not to him,
Em B B7
And although I know that he is blind,
C C7
Still I say theres a way for us.
F Gm F F/E
I love him, but when the night is over,
Dm G C
He is gone, the rivers just a river,
Bb A7 Dm
Without him the world around me changes,
Gm C
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers.
I love him, But every day I'm learning
Dm G7 C
All my life I've only been pretending
Bb A7 Dm
Without me his world will go on turning
Gm Gm/F C
A world that's full of happiness, that I have never known
F F7 Bb
I love him, I love him, I love him,
F#7 F
But only on my own.
