MI LA
It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone
MI LA
I look around my life tonight and you are gone
MI LA
i might have done something to keep you if I'd known
MI SI
How unhappy you'd become
MI
Well I was dreaming of you
LA
With my heart in your hands
MI
And I was following through
DO#m SI
With my beautiful plans
MI DO#m SI
MI LA MI
Yeah, now I'm rolling down this canyon drive
DO#m SI
With your laughter in my head
MI LA MI
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
B (tacet)
'cuz those dreams are dead
MI LA MI LA
But I'm alive
MI LA
I want to go where I will never hear your name
MI LA
I want to lose my sorrow and be free again
MI LA
And I know I've been insane
MI SI
When I think of the places I could've been
MI
But I was dreaming of you
LA
With my heart in your hands
MI
And I was following through
DO#m SI
With my beautiful plans
MI DO#m SI
(solo)
MI MI
LA
Standing here by the highway side
MI
Watching these trucks blow by
DO#m
Inches from my face
SI MI
Yeah, thinking about the time I've wasted
(Dreaming of you)
LA
And the pleasure we once tasted
(Dreaming of you)

Looking up and down this road

I've been here before
(Following through)
DO#m SI
Can't be here no more

With your laughter in my head

Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive

'cuz those dreams are dead
MI LA MI LA
But I'm alive
MI LA
Look at the way I believed in you and loved you all these years

MI LA
And I thought that it would kill me, but I'm alive!
