G D Em C

[Verse]
       G                         D
And I wonder even now, whatever came of you
       Em                         C
And I wonder even now, where you are
       G                                 D
Even though I'm much too proud to ever say it
      Em                                   C
Your ghost still comes around to haunt my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
         Am
If only time
               Bb
Could somehow turn the page
        Am
If only I
               C
Hadn't walked away

[Verse]
       G                                   D
I'm a desperate man who longs to stop the aching
       Em                                   C
I'm a desperate man who longs to find someone
         G                                 D
Who can show me there is joy left for the taking
         Em                                C
Who can show me there's a song left to be sung

[Pre-Chorus]
         Am
If only time
               Bb
Could somehow turn the page
        Am
If only I
               C
Hadn't walked away

[Chorus]
G                   D                 Em       C
     The lonely embrace of days gone by
G                   D                 C
     So better the taste where love survives
Am            C                 D
     But the one you loved is gone

[Bridge]
D                        Bb
      Now I know, now I know
D                                  Bb
      We can't replace what we let go
D                                Bb
      And still I hope, still I hope
                      C
      That time will ease the pain
           Am                 C              G
Of losing something that was pure and beautiful

[Solo]
G  D  Em  C
G  D  Em  C

[Verse]
        G                        D
And I wonder even now, whatever came of you
        Em                        C
And I wonder even now, where you are

[Chorus]
G                   D                 Em       C
     The lonely embrace of days gone by
G                   D                 Em       C
     So better the taste where love survives
C
     But the one you loved is gone

[Solo]
G  D  Em  C

[Outro]
       G                      D
La la la la la la la la la la la la   (If only time could turn the page)
      Em                      C
La la la la la la la la la la la      (And take me back to yesterday)
       G                      D
La la la la la la la la la la la la   (Oh, but things would always change)
      C                       Am C Am
La la la la la la la la la la la
   G
Oh oh
