[Verse]
I'm so Abglad that Dbyou stopped Abin
And I Dbhad some tAbhings to Bbmsay
But Ebnow they've Bbmbeen forgoAbtten
They'll get Absaid a dBbmifferent dAbay
They'll get Dbsaid a dAbifferent Bbmway
'Cause eEbverytBbmhing keeps chAbanging
GmLife is always Cmraging
FBeyond the walls anBbd cages
EbEverybody chAbanges
Til tAbomorrow's yesteEbrday
I'm so gAblad that yDbou stopped bAby
And I Dbwill not Abask you Bbmwhy
EbIt's just Bbmgood to sAbee you
AbYou always mBbmake me smAbile
And you aDblways Abmake me Bbmsigh
EbSometimes I sBbmtill wonAbder
Why the sounGmds of distant Cmthunder
FAlways pulled you Bbunder
Why you sEbearched, but never Abfound her
Why she aAblways got Ebaway
[Chorus]
And somDbewhere on the Ebhill
                 Ab(Bbm)       Fm  
Inside the past we hear the bells
DbCatching only pEbarts of thoughts
And Abfragments Bbmof ourFmselves
Till Fwe Dbbegin Ebagain
[Verse]
I'm so Abglad that Dbyou are Abhere
And I Dbknow that Abit's been Bbmyears
EbI'm just Dbglad to Absee you
And Abthere's no Bbmneed for teAbars
DbTime's best Abfriend is Bbmfear
EbThat's how Bbmit can fAbind us
And Gmdo it's greatesCmt kindness
FAlways to rBbemind us
That Ebit's our only Abtime inside
This Abbody and this Ebmind
[Chorus]
And Dbsomewhere in my Ebmind
                    Ab(Bbm)     Fm  
Behind closed eyes, I see the past
DbCatching every Ebmoment that went Abby
   (Bbm)               Fm       Db  Eb  
To make it last till I begin again
