VERSE-clean electric
whenever I run
whenever I run to you lost one
it's never done
just hanging on
Fill 4 Gm
the past has let me be
Fill 4 Gm
returning as if dream
Fill 4 Gm Fm C
shattered as belief
Fill 1
if you have to go don't say goodbye
Fill 1
if you have to go don't you cry
Fill 1
if you have to go I will get by
Fill 2 A#
someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side
but for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
heaven from above
but for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
heaven from above
Fill 4 Gm
your picture out of time
Fill 4 Gm
left aching in my mind
Fill 4 Gm Fm C
shadows kept alive
