Tom: G
G C
If you have a minute, come and sit a while with me
D G
This song comes off as happy but it’s kinda sad you see…
C G
The me in the mirror I looked at yesterday
C D
Though she wanted to change, somehow she looks the same today
G C D
Been feelin' kind of blue, anxiety too, I’ve almost given up
G C
Since nobody will listen to the things I have to say
G A G
It’s useless anyway, so I’ll bury my face in my knees
[Pre-Chorus]
A G
One by one the tears they start to fall, does no one care at all?
C D
But just as I was gonna quit someone responded --
A G
“Hey, don’t you know? No one will know what your he~art ho~lds
C D
So c’mon open up, I’m here to listen you know?”
[Chorus]
C D
Heading towards tomorrow was the me of today
G Em
Waving her hands like crazy saying “see you someday!”
C D
Behind, they’re yelling, telling me “keep doing your best”
G
Although a pretty noisy chorus, I love them all to death
C D
And so I take off running never looking behind
G Em
And as my tears reflect the evening glow
C D G
I say my bye byes, to once upon a me of now and i go...
[Verse 2]
G C
If you have a minute, can you keep on sitting here with me?
D G
Now that I’m feeling better I won’t cry as much you see?
C G C
Just watch my heart, a shining star, light up the sky
D
Hey, did I hear you right just now?
G C D
Been feelin' kind of blue? Anxiety too? Did you almost give up
G C
If nobody will listen to the things you have to say
G
I’m here for you okay?
C D G
Cause we’re friends, don’t ever forget!
[Pre-Chorus]
A G
One by one the tears they start to fall but now they’re falling down your face
C D
Tell me what’s been going on but know “It’s gonna be okay”
A G C
Hey, now, whatever you do, don’t worry cause I’m here by your side
D
There’s no need to cry
[Chorus]
C D
Heading towards tomorrow was the you of today
G Em
Waving your hands like crazy saying “see you someday!”
C D
Behind, they’re yelling, telling you “keep doing your best”
G
Although a pretty noisy chorus, don't you love them to death
C D
And as you take off running, I could see it inside
G Em
A heart that shines just like the evening glow
C D G
So say your bye byes, to once upon a you of now and then go!
[Final Verse]
G C
Could you listen to me one last time before you leave?
D G
Back then the smallest thing could make me burst into tears
C G
But you, and you, were all there to
C D
Support me so I guess it’s time I do that too
G C D
Was feelin' kind of blue, anxiety too, I’d almost given up
G C G
But you’d pick me back up, and listen to the things I say, and come by every day
C D G
Now to you, I want to do the same!
[Pre-Chorus]
A G
One by one the tears are falling down, and in the sea they make you splash
C D
And flail around but there’s no way that I would let you drown!
A G
Casting a lifeline with rhythm and rhyme
C D
Telling you it’s alright, I hope I made it in time…
[Chorus]
C D
Heading towards tomorrow with my hand here in yours
G Em
Excited for tomorrow and what it has in store
C D
And from behind, they hug me, like they do everyday
G
Followed by a noisy chorus I’ll keep loving the same
C D
And we can’t help but cry and give each other a smile
G Em
That shined much brighter than the evening glow
C D G
So I say bye bye, to once upon a me of now and I go
