[Verse 1]
Abmaj7 Cm
Eyes and ears open to whom I may meet
Eb Gm7
Questions and answers, smile and repeat
Abmaj7 Cm
Tattoos form stories we all can endear
Eb Gm
But I'd much rather hear what you love and you fear
Abmaj7 Cm9
A personal list caused by one little kiss
Eb Gm
A tear from a loved one, a glare to a fist
Abmaj7 Cm9
All have their endings and I've had my share
Eb Gm7
It's too bad I sing to repair
[Chorus]
Abmaj7 Fm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
Eb Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7 Fm9
Faces and places they go
Eb Dbmaj7
Become things I write, things that I write
Eb6/Ab Fm9
Sometimes I feel like a ghost
Eb Dbmaj7
Who longs for a life, longs for a life again
Eb6/Ab Fm9
But then I remember the faces
Eb Dbmaj7
That put out my light, the faces that lied
And then I know why
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Abmaj7 Cmadd9
An outfit that falls by the waist
Eb
A plan in it’s place
Gm
My heart won it's very first race
Abmaj7 Cmadd9
Held, but I feel out of touch
Eb
Enough is enough
Gm7
Every why needs a what
Abmaj7
And every what needs a who, what, where, why is it
Cmadd9 Eb
I sit by quiet while lives live their lows
Gm Abmaj7
And the highs are all blown by the wind
Cmadd9
If you sing from within
Eb Gm7
Tears roll down your chin and you feel it again
[Chorus]
Abmaj7 Fm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
Eb Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7 Fm9
Faces and places they go
Eb Dbmaj7
Become things I write, things that I write
Eb6/Ab Fm9
Sometimes I feel like a ghost
Eb Dbmaj7
Who longs for a life, longs for a life again
Eb6/Ab Fm9
But then I remember the faces
Eb Dbmaj7
That put out my light, the faces that lied
And then I know why
[Instrumental]

Abmaj7 Cm9 Eb Dbmaj7 (4x)
[Outro]
Abmaj7 Cm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
Eb Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7 Cm9
Faces and places I've lost
Eb Dbmaj7
All left behind, frozen in time
