CAPO on 4th fret

Chords: G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C

Intro: G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C

..............................Verse:1................................

Today is the day I wish you goodbye

And I call it a wish, my heart seldom lies

There are a couple of things I need to say before we part

But you needn’t know…

Dm C

And I needn’t start now

(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1

..............................Verse:2.................................

Times they turn, faces they burn

And I’m riding a memory that’s left and returned

Your eyes they hold the key to my soul

Bm Dm C

Like they did about 4 years ago

(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1

..............................Pre Chorus...............................

Happy to let you go I am

Hard to know why I’ve hidden it for years

And I continue to hide

If it’s best for you, I’d much rather be

Bm Dm C

The chap who writes you songs and sings the melodies

.................................Chorus..................................

From

The

G Em

Sidelines to my grave

Hidden in your subconscious mind

In the little debris that you’re defined

Bm Dm C G

Is where I exist… and I will always

(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1

...............................Pre Chorus...............................

We’ve grown up far away

We've grown up together

Made up stories and tales

We've shared in our letters

And the stars that we counted

On the hills that we climbed

Are still the stars that shine

Dm C

The ones that remind me

................................Chorus....................................

The

G Em

Sidelines to my grave

Hidden in your subconscious mind

In the little debris that you’re defined

Bm Dm C G

Is where I exist… and I will always

..............................Repeat Verse 1................................

Today is the day I wish you goodbye

And I call it a wish, my heart seldom lies

There are a couple of things I need to say before we part

But you needn’t know…

Dm C G

And I needn’t start now

(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x2
