The Distance

F# A D

[Verse 1]
F#                      E
 And since you've been gone
        D
Ive been away
      D
From here and now
F#
 From yesterday
                  A
The lies that it took
           D
To keep you around
       D
So i held you here

We talked about
   F#m
A life of sin
         A
Giving in
          Bm
And how sometimes
D
 Even God forgets

[Chorus]
    A
And I come to save you
                  E         F#m
But I couldn't remember your face
       F#m
So I closed my eyes
      E                 D
And called out your name
A
And when I found you
           D        E
You were slipping away
      E
So I had to do whats best for you

[Solo]
F# A D D

[Verse 2]
F#         E
Years spent alone
          D
But I couldn't stay
        D
Once I lost my soul
            F#
Found my way
              A
Back to the place
             D
I started with you
          D
Where we realized
      C#m
What we would do
      Bm
With mended heart
            A
A brand new start
               D
And the words back

We never meant to say

    A
And I come to save you
                  E         F#m
But I couldn't remember your face
       F#m
So I closed my eyes
      E                 D
And called out your name
A
And when I found you
           D        E
You were slipping away
      E
So I had to do whats best for you
     A
The lies that they gave you
          A            E        F#m
Were the same as the promise I made
     F#m
You did nothing wrong
    E               D
But you were ashamed
         A                    D   
But when I heard they would give 
      E
you away
         A               E
Well, I had to do whats best for you

[Bridge]
D        E                     F#m
Say it, say what you needed to say
                      E
You know you'll feel better now
    D        E                    
And hate me, hate me for all of 
    A
the ways
   E
I let you down
   F#m              E     D
In search of you i lost myself
          E
I lost myself
A
Don't you feel better now?
