DWell I don't know where the time goes
But I remember Emwhat you said
And every single fGeeling's dead
DEvery word sounds more absurd
Faith and comedy could Emheal the hurt
Verses dug out through some GChristian dirt
Well am I Bmeverything you wanted?
Am I eAverything you never Ghad?
Well am I Bmeverything you wanted?
Am I Aeverything you never Ghad?                           
I thought it was BmstrangeA  
How they kGept me in the dark
Shouting "One Bmday young boy you'll be a Aman
and you'll be gGuiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely Bmheart."A  G  
Oh but a lonely BmheartA  G  
DFacing me 
A false belief
And I never thought the Embooks I read
Would make me who I Gwant to be
Well am I Bmeverything you wanted?
Am I eAverything you never Ghad?
Well am I Bmeverything you wanted?
Am I Aeverything you never Ghad?

and you'll be gGuiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely Bmheart."A  G  
Oh but a lonely BmheartA  G  
DI never knew how much I'd Emmiss it till it's Ggone
I still listen to your fBmavorite songs
Wishing you were Ain my Garms
DI never knew how much I'd Emmiss it till it's Ggone
I still listen to your fBmavorite songs
Wishing you were Ain my Garms
DI never knew how much I'd Emmiss it till it's Ggone
I still listen to your fBmavorite songs
