Fmaj7  :  |3321|


C             Fmaj7                    
I don't know why     
     C            Fmaj7
We still live to-geth-er;
       C        Fmaj7
We're so far a-part   
    C           Fmaj7
so much of the time.
C              Fmaj7
I don't know why     
      C           Fmaj7
This beau-ti-ful wea-ther
     C            Fmaj7
is break-ing my spi-rit  
     C           Fmaj7
And tear-ing my mind   
       C   Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7
all a-part.

C           Fmaj7
Are you so lone-ly?
C           Fmaj7
Are you so sad?
      C             Fmaj7
Have you lost your pur-pose,
     C              Fmaj7
The faith that you had?
    C         Fmaj7
If life is a ques-tion
    C           Fmaj7
I don't under-stand,
     C          Fmaj7
If time is the rea-son
      C       Fmaj7
Then no-body can,

        Am
In my heart 
       Em         F         
It is just an il-lu-sion,  
      G            Am
It's not e-ven real
           Em                F
It's much more than you think
           G             C     Fmaj7   C Fmaj7
It's much more than you feel.

   C               Fmaj7
My ears are still ringing
         C          Fmaj7
There's nothing to say.
     C          Fmaj7
Why look to the o-cean
    C         Fmaj7
To wash me a-way?
  C                  Fmaj7
There goes my best friend,
  C                 Fmaj7  
There goes my last dime;
    C          Fmaj7
If love is the an-swer
     C           Fmaj7
I'm wast-ing my time.

        Am
In my heart 
       Em         F         
It is just an il-lu-sion,  
      G            Am
It's not e-ven real
           Em                F
It's much more than you think
           G             C     Fmaj7   C Fmaj7
It's much more than you feel.


         C  Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7         C  Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7
 Do you feel?              Is this real?    
       C  Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7        C   Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7
How I feel,               In my heart,              
       C    Fmaj7  C  Fmaj7        C   Fmaj7  
In my heart,                In my heart ...
