Em
Wake up, everyone is leaving.
D C
Daylight has a away of creeping up.
When you're in love,
D
When you're in love.
Em
Sickness, everybody has it.
D C
Mine just happens to be hidden. And you,
What about you?
D
What about you?
**CHORUS
Am C G D
I won't even begin telling you how sorry I am.
Am C G D
Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so...
C
Alone.
Em
Alone.
**VERSE 2
Real life, we were never in it.
Seemed like trouble to begin with.
But I never refuse,
Never refuse.
So don't stop, better keep it moving.
Although memories are soothing.
I can never go back,
Never go back.
**CHORUS
Am C G D
I won't even begin telling you how sorry I am.
Am C G D
Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so...
G
Alone.

G C
I'm feeling like a child.
G
Like someone might find out.
D C
I shouldn't be here at all.
G C
But these things do come 'round.
Am
And it may as well be my,
D C
Turn to take it all.

Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so

When you're in love.
