Em D# C It's quiet now, and what it brings is everything Comes calling back, a brilliant night, I'm still awake I looked ahead, I'm sure I saw you there You don't need me to tell you now that nothing can compare Chorus: G D you might have laughed if I told you C Am you might have hidden the frown G D you might have succeeded in changing me C Am I might have been turned around G D It's easier to leave than to be left behind C Am leaving was never my proud G D leaving New York never easy C Am I saw the life fading out Now life is sweet and what it brings, I tried to take But loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in wait And all I've lost, still in my eyes The shadow of necklace across your thigh I might've lived my life in a dream, but I swear, this is real Memory fuses and shatters like glass, mercurial future, forget the past It's you, it's what I feel Chorus Em D# Em you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart D# you find it in your heart, change. G D I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart) C Am I told you ,I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change) G D I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart) C Am I told you, I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change) Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  D#  Em  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
