VERSE:
Cm Ab
Well I've seen that giving up,
Cm Ab
It has given back to me,
Cm Ab
And what's left is strong and true,
Cm
And I built it next to you,
Ab
I've waited, I've failed, and I've wanted,
Now I've got it,
PRE-CHORUS:
Bb Ab
And I hold my hand to touch the skyline,
CHORUS:
Eb
I awake from sleeping,
Bb
This wide-eyed dreaming,
Cm Bb Ab
Was always there for me,
Eb
Now I wait these reasons,
Bb
With changing seasons,
Cm Bb Ab
You were there for me,
VERSE:
Cm Ab
And I'm making up my time (And I'm making up my time)
Cm Ab
Through time zones and city lines,
Cm Ab
And these days are long but new,
Cm
And I share them next to you,
Ab
The postcards and mail that needs sending,
I'm forgetting to send them at all,
PRE-CHORUS:
Eb~ Ab~
When I die they will follow you home,
CHORUS:
Eb
I awake from sleeping,
Bb
This wide-eyed dreaming,
Cm Bb Ab
Was always enough for me,
Eb
Now I break these reasons,
Bb
Through changing seasons,
Cm Bb Ab
You were there for me
BRIDGE:
Cm Ab
Now I'm given the chance that I want,
Bb Cm
I will do it and I'll do it well,
Ab
And for those who have stood by my side,
Bb Eb
You are the story I tell,
(This lead comes in here)

Well I awake from sleeping,

This wide-eyed dreaming,

You were there for me,
