G Em7 C D
I can see the place where I came from
G C C D
I can hear those sounds right now
G Em7 C D
I can find the path I used to run
G C C D
And believe I still know how
C G Am Am7
Then I shake my head clearing my vision
C G Am C D D
I keep those scenes at bay
G Em7 C D
And I can see the place where I came from
Am Em C D G
Slippin' fur - ther and fur - ther away.
Interlude: /G . . GM7/C . . ./Am . . ./D . . ./D
G Em7 C D
I can feel the way I used to feel
G C C D
When the world was small and green
G Em7 C D
And you sang a song of soft appeal
G C C D
And I curled into my dream
C G Am Am7
Then I shake my head clearing my vision
C G Am C D
I keep those scenes at bay
G Em7 C D
And I can feel the way I used to feel
Am Em C D G
Slippin' fur - ther and fur - ther away.

C G D G
Time keeps movin' faster and faster
C G D
I'm not losin' track
C G D G
Oh, I'm afraid that somethin's forgotten
Am C D D D(beat 1 only)
So I keep lookin' back
G Em7 C D
I can hear the songs you used to sing
G C C D
I can swear I won't let go
G Em7 C D
You were strong and you knew everything
G C C D
Back before I had to know
C G Am Am7
Then I shake my head clearing my vision
C G Am C D D
I keep those scenes at bay
G Em7 C D
And I can hear the songs you used to sing
Am Em C D G
Slippin' fur - ther and fur - ther away.
Em7 C D
Yes, I can hear the songs you used to sing
Am Em C D G
Slippin' fur - ther and fur - ther away.
