Am F C
[Verse 1]
Am F C
We took the wrong way down
Am F C
You see just one side now
Am F C
Guess that's what life's about
G
What you remember
F
What we remember
[Verse 2]
Am F C
There's only one thing left
Am F C
It's what we tell ourselves
Am F C
The little lies they help
G
Us to remember
F
How we remember
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Heaven help the ones who fly away
Am F C G
Heaven help the ones who have to stay and place the blame
Am F C G
Maybe what you think of me won't change
C F Am G
But I still hold on, hold on
C F Am G Am F C C
Hold on to the old days
Am F C
The old days
[Verse 3]
Am F C
Pack up the life that's left
Am F C
Except that one blue dress
Am F C
I always tried my best
G
Do you remember?
[Verse 4]
Am F C
I'll take it year by year
Am F C
Watching the dust go clear
Am F C
We're all afraid to fear
G
Or to remember
F
How we remember
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Heaven help the ones who fly away
Am F C G
Heaven help the ones who have to stay and place the blame

Maybe what you think of me won't change

I'm sorry, that I never knew

Maybe what you think of me won't change
