[Verse]
        F
So you know?
      G                                       Em
Only now, it seems all those things that you said
                                             Am      G
Perchance, there’s something more that they meant
          F
And you know?
        G                                     C
How I tried, my best not to think of them at all
                            Am
The words were so hard to recall

[Pre-Chorus]
            F
Without a thought, I carry on in daydream and in song
             G                       C
I’m brash I know but even so, I walk along in this life with nowhere to go

[Chorus]

And when,
F           G               E                   Am
I reach my final day, this life slowly burning away
        F                   G               Am   Em
Surely I’ll regret all the words I couldn’t say, ah
      F            G           E                         Am
Even there on my final day, I know I’ll still call your name

Em          G          Am
Once more, once more, once more
 G        Em         C
More now, no doubt, speak out.

[Verse]
        F
So you know?
          G                                 Em
Though I try, I can’t find the words saying why
      Am                         G
That blue hue had filled up the sky
         F
Or you know?
         G                                  Em
What to say, to place all the small little lights
      E                                  Am
That shine through the clouds up in the night
       F
Speak now

[Verse]
        F
So you know…
        G                               G7
I’ll confess, in truth I had known long ago
               G                A
That you had gone and left me alone
          F
But you know
          G                                  C
I’m the kind, of fool who would just let it go
                           Am
And not let the pain ever show

[Bridge]

 F
Really clearly I’ll say it
        G
Make a note and swear I’ll repay it
        Em                                                                Am
Let’s arrange, that we’ll meet, in the heat, of the day just take me with you
       F
The flowers last after they scatter
       G
Every day out in the summer heat had mattered
           Am         E
Talk your heart out,
            G         D
give it a voice now,
            A
shouting it all loud


[Chorus Outro]

And when
F            D              E              G#          A
I reach my final day, just once could you smile once again?

     F#
I’m sure

[Chorus]
 G#          Bb
There on my final day, I’ll sing this song full of love
            F#                G#                 Bb
And you’ll smile and tell me that I finally did enough, yeah,
       Bb          F#             G#
Sadly there on my final day, you won’t be the one by my side
     Bb                F#      C#
Long ago you went and left my life


[Outro]
 F#         G#         Fm         Bb
Once more, once more, once more, once more
 F#         G#         Bb        C#
Once more, once more, once more, if you could
 C#         G#         Bb        C#
Once more, once more, once more, once more

  F#      G#         C#
More now, no doubt, speak out.
