We love this song and his new record
G Bm
What would it take to gain acceptance
G Bm
to the grounds behind your eyes
Em Bm
You know I´m open to suggestions
A D
the one you made we never tried
Bm F#m
You let it silp right out from under
D G
your breath and it rolled around my head
Bm G
It was nothing I´d consider
A D
I knew It had to happen then
G Bm
Stood on the banks of the Potomac
G Bm
we watched the waters rushing by
Em Bm
you said we should live in the moment
A D
then I missed you all the time
Bm F#m
And I know no one will belive me
D G
but I don´t want a second chance
Bm G
to be an object of desire
A D
if that means slipping through your hands
Bm A D
If I had tried to make you mine
A D
you would have walked away
Bm A
Life can´t compete with memories
G D
they never have to change
G Bm
This world if full of missing persons
Bm G
I love those unsolved mysteries
Em Bm
if someone says they know for certain
A D
they are selling something certainly
Bm F#m
So when I set my self to wonder
D G
All the questions that remain
Bm G
the only one that even matters
A D
is when I´ll see yourself again
Bm A D
I keep looking back for artifacts
A D
to prove that you were here
Bm F#m
the sound that´s been keeps echoing
G D
it never disappears
