The Way It Used To Be

F#m   Bm   E   F#sus4   F#m

[Verse 1]
F#m
I'm here
       Bm
You're there
       E
Come closer
   F#sus4   F#m
Tonight I'm lonely
F#m
Come here
     Bm
With me
   E
I want it
           F#sus4  F#m
The way it used to be

[Chorus]
F#m
What is left of love?
        Bm
Tell me who would even care?
E
So much time has passed
          F#sus4     F#m
I'd still meet you anywhere
F#m
Water under bridge
Bm
Evening after day
E
What is left of love here
     F#sus4       F#m
That didn't drift away?

[Verse 2]
F#m                    Bm
I can remember days of sun
                             E
We knew our lives had just begun
E
We could do anything
      F#sus4             F#m
We're fearless when we're young
F#m                        Bm
Under the moon, address unknown
                         E
I can remember nights in Rome
E
I thought that love would last
   F#sus4        F#m
A promise set in stone

[Interlude]
Bm     E              A        F#m
I'd survive with only memories
Bm         E                A  F#m
If I could change the way I feel
Bm         E              A    F#m
But I want more than only memories
Bm       E                 A
A human touch to make them real

[Verse 3]
F#m                   Bm
Another day, another dream
                          E
Over the bridge an empty scene
                              F#sus4
We'd spend the weekend lost in bed
           F#m
And float upstream
F#m                       Bm
I don't know why we moved away
                             E
Lost in the here and now we strayed
E
Into a New York zone
     F#sus4        F#m
Our promise was betrayed

[Bridge]
F#m                           Bm
I was there caught on Tenth Avenue
                                E
You elsewhere with Culver City blues
                              F#sus4  F#m
Then and there I knew that I'd lost you

[Instrumental]
F#m   Bm   E   F#sus4   F#m
F#m   Bm   E   F#sus4   F#m

[Chorus]
F#m
What is left of love?
        Bm
Tell me who will even care?
E
So much time has passed
          F#sus4     F#m
I'd still meet you anywhere
F#m
Water under bridge
Bm
Evening after day
E
What is left of love here
     F#sus4       F#m
That didn't drift away?

[Pre-coda]
F#m
Don't give me all your northern pain
Bm
Don't sell me New York in the rain
E
Let's leave our promises behind
           F#sus4   F#m
Rewind and try again

[Coda]
F#m
What remains in time
Bm
That didn't fade away?
E
Sometimes I need to see
          F#sus4  F#m
The way it used to be
