Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
In waves of people you can lose your feet
Youve got to stay hard to the ground
It gets so easy now to lose your way
When youre ever outward bound
A church bell ringing in the fading light
Stops you dead like a cold steel wall
The ghost of yester-years is touching you
And as sure as god youll fall
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Like it used to be
And all the reasons why you started out
They hit you hard with every bell
The choir practice in the empty hall
Is a sound you know so well
Like something lost inside your overcoat
You find it later by mistake
You lost it all a thousand years ago
And you pray its not too late
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like a diary
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like it used to be
Im gonna write it in a diary
Now I remember everything
Yeah I remember how it used to be
With every note that choir boy sings
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like a diary
