[D]  [G]  [Em]  [G] x2

[D] I'd like to say,[G] I make good use of my t[Em]ime while you've b[G]een away.
[D] And it's true,[G] I've been at my piano [Em]everyd[G]ay...thin[D]king of you[G]...[Em]    [G]
[D] They talk around,[G] I hear them whisper,
 its the [Em]funniest thing really they,[G] think you're gone forever.
 [D]I know the truth its just,[G] getting hard to bel[Em]ieve it[G]...

[A] and they all t[G]ell me its over,[A] even the s[Cadd9]tars are alligned and I,

[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still I fall in,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me down.
[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still they catch me,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me down.

[D]  [G]  [Em]  [G]

[D] I'm not the same,
[G] I can't sleep nights and now I'm [Em]calling your name when I [G]do.
[D] And yet without you they[G], say I get on bet[Em]ter, and better, and bet[G]ter..

[A] when they all [G]tell me it's over,
[A] I'll damn the [Cadd9]gods until the stars are alligned, and I,

[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still I fall in,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me down.
[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still they catch me,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me d[Bm]own..

 [Bm]  [G] x2

 Well [Bm]look at my life and look at my face,
 [Bm]can't you see my heart bleeding dow[G]n my sleeve?
 So you're [Bm]holding my hand and holding my heart,
 but [Bm]I just want to feel your breath inside me s[G]o I, can breathe.
 [Bm]Somewhere in the distance I catch a spark, a grace,
 and [Bm]hope for something that makes me feel like I'm aliv[G]e.
 It's[Bm] never too soon, it's never too late, so I start screaming out, I,
 see your f[G]ace, I see your hand, reaching out, and I [A]yell to you and I say:

*guitar break in acoustic version(otherwise same as above)*

 I follow the signs so clearly and still I fall in

 the quicksand's pulling me down.
[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still they catch me,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me down
[D] I follow the [A]signs so clearly and [Em]still I fall in,
 the [G]quicksand's pulling me down
[D] I know you can [A]feel me rising and [Em]I'm on fire,
 [G]keep on pu[D]lling me [A]out[Em]...o[G]ut..

 [D]Look at my life and look at my face,
 and [A]look where I've come to get to this pla[Em]ce with you[G]...
[D] Being here to sit and lay at your feet and [A]rest in your arms,
 and listen to yo[Em]ur heart beat.[G]..

 [D]Ohhhhh, [A]Ohhhhh, [Em]Ohhhh[G]h.... x 4 (or as many as you like)

[D]  [A]  [Em]  [G]  [A]  [D]
