Verse 1
G
F
How many times have I read farewell
C
G
lines in the things that you never seem to say?
How many times have I
F
read those last lines
C
And wondered why it
G
ended this way?
C
F
Words have been fine,
G

G
C

and all those thoughts in mind I must have been blind
G
F
It seems to be a shame that the number and the
C
G
name both have changed with the passing of time
How you would write about
F
the bright lights
C
G
It's a wonder that I never realized
How you would write about
F
the bright lights
C
G
With words that would cloud up my eyes
C

Our race is won and an

other's just begun

C
G
I must have been blind
It seems to me a shame that
F
a number and a name
C
Both have changed
G
With the passing of time
When your letters stopped,
F
the tears that I've fought
C
G
How they ran like the rivers to the sea
When your letters stopped,
F
the tears that I've fought
C
G
How they came in a flood of memory
C
F
G
Each sunny day you slip further
C
F
G
away I must have been blind
F
It seems to me a shame that the number
C
and the name both have changed
