[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G
Faces, lost in time
G                F#m
Like a faded magazine
G
I've been hard to find
G                           F#m
I've been close, but out of reach
            D
When you're next to me

Put it to rest or the

The ones I loved and left behind

Feel some change again

Like your wound won't let mе sleep

Got my way again
G                       F#m
Got so close I couldn't breathe

Whеn you're next to me
