Can anybody [Bm]tell me, [D/B]tell me exactly where
[Bm6]I am
How [D/B]different things look when your [Bm/G]all on
your own [D/G]
[Am]Watching the darkness [C/A]closing all around me
All around [Bsus4]me [B] [Bsus2] [B]
And I [C]look for the [Csus2]feeling
Of your [C]arms to re[Csus2]mind me
Of [G]everything that's [Bm/G]dear to me
And is [Am]always in my [C/A]heart
Could [Bm/D]so easily be [D]taken
And it's [G5/D]tearing me [D]apart
Going [Am]over and over in my [C/A]mind
I [Bsus4]relive it one [B]second at a [Bsus2]time [B]
