This switches back and forth from 2/2 to 4/4 so you kina have to feel

the rhythm...



Intro:   



8 bar rest



(figure 1)

G -----|-----|----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----

D -----|-----|----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----

A -----|-----|-5--|-----|-5---|-(5)-|-5---|-(5)-

E -5---|-4---|----|-2-0-|-----|-----|-----|-----



Verse:

(figure 1 - 

And even though the moment passed me by 

I still can't turn away 

'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose 

Got tossed along the way 

And letters that you never meant to send 

Get lost or thrown away



Chorus:

G ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

D ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A ---5\-------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--

E ------2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-----------------2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0------------------



And now we're grown up orphans 

That never knew their names 

We don't belong to no one 

That's a shame



G ----------------------------------------------------------------

D -----------------------------------------------------------0----

A ---------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------------------

E ---2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-----------------5--2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-------



But if you could hide beside me 

Maybe for a while 

And I won't tell no one your name 

And I won't tell em' your name



(verse)

And scars are souvenirs you never lose

The past is never far 

Did you lose yourself somewhere out there

Did you get to be a star 

And don't it make you sad to know that life

Is more than who we are



(chorus)

We grew up way too fast 

And now there's nothing to believe

Reruns all become our history 

A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio

And I won't tell no one your name 

And I won't tell em' your name 



(verse)

I won't tell em' your name 

Mmm, mmm, mmm,

I won't tell em' your name… Ow!



(solo - play chorus)



(Bass tacit)

I think about you all the time 

But I don't need the same 

It's lonely where you are come back down, 

And I won't tell em your name
