Styx - Haven't We Been Here Before
[Intro] :   C    D    C    D    C    D  Bm  
CHaven't we Dbeen here beEmfore. CFootsteps lead Ddown to the Amnote on
the Ddoor that says CI can't stay Dhere anyAmore. And Chaven't we Dfelt
this same Eway. CSure in our Dhearts, but afAmraid just the Dsame
to say, CI can't stay Done minute Emore. You might Cthink that
it's hopeless, Dbeyond our control, but that's Cnot necessarily Dso.
Can't you Csee there's a chance for the Ddaring young soul,
who's Cfinally learned to say Dno. No I Cwon't be misDused,
igAmnored or aDbused, and I Cwon't just give up and let Dgo.
[Chorus] :
So toGnight.D.. hold me Cclose to youD/G. And don't give upD  
what's imCportant to you. And as Amtime.. Grolls.. Don.....
Amnothing can Gstand in our Dway. And GI, I beDlieve if we Glearn from
the Gpast we'd say Amhaven't we Ambeen here beAmfore.
And GI, I beDlieve if we Gopen our Ghearts we'd find Amkeys to unAmlock
every Amdoor. GDark would turn... Dinto light... Dwe'd be Amstrong...
we'd be Dright.
[Solo] :
C  D  C  D
C  D  C  D
G  Em  C  Am  Em  D
G  Em  C  Em  D
[Repeat chorus]
Hearts Gdon't change... oDvernight... we'd be Amstrong...
we'd be Dright. CSo stay with Dme now.. tChe future Dis ours..
and Amwe'll be the ones who go Eon.

C D Em C D Am

Haven't we been here before. Footsteps lead down to the note on

the door that says I can't stay here anymore. And haven't we felt

this same way. Sure in our hearts, but afraid just the same

C D E C

to say, I can't stay one minute more. You might think that

So tonight... hold me close to you. And don't give up

nothing can stand in our way. And I, I believe if we learn from

G Am Am Am

the past we'd say haven't we been here before.

G D G G Am Am

And I, I believe if we open our hearts we'd find keys to unlock

every door. Dark would turn... into light... we'd be strong...

we'd be right.
