F                G
In a town on the heights
C          Am
We met in sound
F                G
Let the cover of night
C         Am
Draw us down
F          G
Further South
C                            Am
Where I was young and caught up
F                   G
In the skies on the way
C          Am
I see them now


[Chorus]
F           G
I'm not the same
   C                             Am
nor you with your little one who needs more than love
F             G
A mother afraid
  C              Am
I had it so easy You were the one who fought
F              G            C
Was I a better man when you held me up?
    Am
And gave me back more than time
F              G            C Am
Was I a better man with you sol?

[Intro]
F G C Am (x2)

[Verse 2]
F                  G
Maybe time has the key
C      Am
To one last door
F                     G
Where our eyes cannot meet
C             Am
Without being sure
F        G
That the sound
C                     Am
had always run inside us
F                  G
From a star out of reach
C        Am
I see it now


[Chorus]
F           G
I'm not the same
C                        Am
nor you with your little one who needs more than love
F        G
A mother afraid
C
I had it so easy
Am
You were the one who fought
F              G            C
Was I a better man when you held me up?
Am
And gave me back more than time
F              G            C Am
Was I a better man with you sol?

[Intro]
F G C Am (x1)

[Verse 3]
F                     G
some shimmers hide the way
C                      Am
And when the idols are gone
F        G
The sun raises others the same
C                       Am
Knowing well the silent thought has no answer, no
F               G
Maybe I was too blind
C                Am
To recognise the buried fire was lying aglow
F            G
If I need no forgiveness
C
I'm all but forgotten
Am
Lost in the changing of the times
F                G
With dust on the table
C
Candle quena lies broken
Am                  F
Waiting on one last songline
G                                C Am F
To live  another life, dream it sol
         G            C
Said I'm sorry that I never wrote
Am
though I meant to
  F                  G
I just couldn't start
C                  Am
Most of the time I spend alone
     F                          G C
Just trying to make sense of it all


[Bridge]
         Am           F G C
Have you ever been alone?
                        Am
no you ain't ever been alone
       F      G
No not really sol
     C              Am
No, you ain't ever been alone
       F      G
No not really sol
