Cmaj7 Dmaj7/E
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7Maybe there was a time
Dmaj7/EI was lost in you
Cmaj7Hoping for a new dream
Dmaj7/EI could wander through
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7Stumbled into your life
Dmaj7/EGot caught up in you
Cmaj7But it just wasn't right
Dmaj7/ENothing we can B7do
[Chorus]
C/GLong ago maEmybe
I wAmanted to be your Fbaby
But I'm nC/Got
If life was that Emeasy
You'd be Amin my arms alreFady
But you're Dmnot you see,
Though long aGgo, maybe
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7And you already know
All things hDmaj7/Eave to change (Everything just change)
Cmaj7That it all comes and goes
Nothing Dmaj7/Estays the same (Nothing stays the same)
[Verse 4]
Cmaj7Even gallant pursuits
Sometimes eDmaj7/End in vain
Cmaj7And a flower can die
When theDmaj7/Ere's too much B7rain
