Verse 1Em7Em6Em
I read all the lett - ers,
Em7Em6EmDmaj9D
I read each word... that you've sent to me,
Bm7
And, though it's past now,
Bm7/AGmaj7F#m7
And your words... start to fade,
Gmaj7F#m7
All the memories I have... still re - main!
Verse 2Em7Em6Em
I've kept all the pict - ures,
Em7Em6
But I hide my feel - ings,
EmDmaj9DDmaj9D
So no one knows, | / / / / |
Em7Em6EmEm7
Oh, sure, my friends all come 'round,
Em6EmDmaj9D
But I'm in a crowd, and on my own,
Bm7
It's 'cause you've gone now,
Bm7/AGmaj7F#m7
But a heart... a heart still re - mains,
Gmaj7F#m7
And it'll be... here, if you--- come a - gain!

But, I didn't believe it, ...not you,
Em6EmDmaj9DBm7
No, ...you would not let me go, seems I was wrong,
Bm7/AGmaj7G6F#m7
But I love... I love you the same,
Gmaj7G6Dmaj9/A
And that's the one thing that you...can't take a - way,
Gmaj7G6Dmaj9/A
