C
Gray November
                     F
I've been down since July
C
Motion capture
            F
Put me in a bad light
C                                      F
I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone
                                    C
Trying to find the one where I went wrong
C
Writing letters
                 F
Addressed to the fire

[Estribillo]

          C
And I was catching my breath
C
Staring out an open window
F
Catching my death
      C
And I couldn't be sure
                      F
I had a feeling so peculiar
F
That this pain would be for
C           F
Evermore

( C  C/B  Am  G  F  G )

[Transition]

C
  Forgive me, Peter
    C/B
My lost fearless leader
     Am
In closets like cedar
    G                          F
Preserved from when we were just kids
                   G
Is it something I did?
     C
The goddess of timing
      C/B
Once found us beguiling
     Am
She said she was trying
   G
Peter, was she lying?
    F                        G
My ribs get the feeling she did

[Pre-Estribillo]

    Am         G       F
And I didn't wanna come down
    Am        G          F
You said it was just goodbye for now

[Estribillo]

     Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
 F
Then you were gonna come find me
 Am
Said you were gonna grow up
 G
Thеn you were gonna come find mе
 Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
 F
Then you were gonna come find me
 Am
Words from the mouths of babes
 G                F        Dm
Promises oceansssss deep
        C           C/B     Am    G
But never to keep
              F   F    G    Am
Oh, never to keep

             C                            Am
And I won't confess that I waited, but I let the
Lamp burn
        F                  G
As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return
           C                           Am
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that
You'd learned
        F                         G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned
          C
And you said you'd come and get me
Am
But you were twenty-five
          F                      G
And the shelf life of those fantasies
 Has expired
 C                          Am
Lost to the "Lost Boys" chapter of your life
F                           G
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried
    Am             G
To hold on to the days
               F
When you were mine
         Am                    G
But the woman who sits by the window
                F           Dm
Has turned out   the light

[Estribillo]

          C
And I was catching my breath
                           F
Floors of a cabin creaking under
 My step
      C
And I couldn't be sure
                      F
I had a feeling so peculiar
F
This pain wouldn't be for

[Transition]

C       C/B  Am  G                 F          G
Evermore            It wouldn't be for evermore
 It wouldn't be for evermore
C  C/B           Am              G        F    G
 Forgive me Peter, but this pain wouldn't
Be for evermore

C                             G
   And when I was shipwrecked
  Am             G
I thought of you
F
 In the cracks of light
  G
I dreamed of you
F
 It was real enough
   Am
To get me through

 F  G

  Am
I swear
C
You were there
