..............................Verse:1................................
G
Today is the day I wish you goodbye

And I call it a wish, my heart seldom lies

There are a couple of things I need to say before we part
Bm
But you needn’t know…
Dm C
And I needn’t start now
(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1
..............................Verse:2.................................
G
Times they turn, faces they burn
Em
And I’m riding a memory that’s left and returned
Am
Your eyes they hold the key to my soul
Bm Dm C
Like they did about 4 years ago
(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1
..............................Pre Chorus...............................
G
Happy to let you go I am
Em
Hard to know why I’ve hidden it for years
And I continue to hide
Am
If it’s best for you, I’d much rather be
Bm Dm C
The chap who writes you songs and sings the melodies
.................................Chorus..................................
C
From

The
G Em
Sidelines to my grave
Am
Hidden in your subconscious mind
In the little debris that you’re defined

(G, Em, Am, Bm, Dm, C)x1
...............................Pre Chorus...............................
G
We’ve grown up far away
We've grown up together
Em
Made up stories and tales
We've shared in our letters
Am
And the stars that we counted
On the hills that we climbed
Bm
Are still the stars that shine
Dm C
The ones that remind me
................................Chorus....................................
C
Of

The

Sidelines to my grave

In the little debris that you’re defined
Bm Dm C G
Is where I exist… and I will always
