Capo 1st Fret
Intro: D F Gm D Bb
[D]There's a picture [Am]in the hall, I [D]know[Am]
[D]and it's from a [Am]time when feelings sh[D]owed[Am]
[C]though I hold it close be[Bb]fore my eyes
[C]my heart refuses to s[Bb]ee.
[Bb]Loving you could have been, [Am]oh so easy
[C]but there is something you don't un[Bb]derstand
through the times when two were [Am]one completely
[C]there was another in this w[Bb]ell laid plan.
[D]This corridor seems to s[Am]tretch for years a[D]head[Am]
[D]but patient hearts canno[Am]t match times steady tr[D]ead[Am]
[C]is this the threshold of [Bb]a fantasy?
[C]is there still life at[Bb] all?
[Bb]Loving you could have been,[Am] oh so easy
[C]but there is something you don't und[Bb]erstand
through the times when two were o[Am]ne completely
[C]there was another in this well laid[Bb] plan... Best laid plan of ours.
[C]Watering the garden, [Gm]some comfort for the twilight years
still, [Bb]life never[C] lingers, [Bb]it marches past our veil of tears
a moment's all we've got, [C]to have and to hold
[Gm]don't slip, don't blink, don't turn your head.[C][-][D]
[D]With a photo[Am]graphic m[D]emory[Am]
[D]I could live in a [Am]time that used to b[D]e[Am]
[C]is this the threshold of a [Bb]fantasy?
[C]is there still life at [Bb]all?
[Bb]Loving you could have been, [Am]oh so easy
[C]but there is something you don't un[Bb]derstand
through the times when two were[Am] one completely
[C]there was another in this well[Bb] laid plan.
[Bb]Loving you could have been, [Am]oh so easy
[C]but there is something you don't [Bb]understand
there was a time when I was [Am]won completely
[C]our emotions they got out [Bb]of hand...
