Capo 3

Intro:  G   C  Em  C

D
Saw my life this morning 
                           G
Lying at the bottom of a drawer
D
All this stuff I'm saving 

Em          C                G
God knows what this junk is for
        Em         Am
And whatever I believed in 
         D              G

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



This is all I have to show
          Em                  Am
What the hell were all the reasons?
       C
For holding on for such dear life 
                   C
Here's where I let go
            G
I'm not running 
          C
I'm not hiding 
           G
I'm not reaching 
            D                                   G
I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 
               C
Gonna pull my soul in 
        Em   D/F#  G 
And I'm al - most home   - Repeat Intro


D
And I saw you this morning 
                          G
You were staring back at me
D
>From an ancient photograph
 Em                  C               G
Stuck between some letters and some keys
           Em         Am
And I was lost for a moment 
        D                G
In the ache of old good-byes 
          Em               Am
Sometimes all that we can know is 
                                                                              
                                                                              
                                                       C -  
There's no such thing as no regrets, and baby it's alright

Chorus

Solo -   Em  C  D  G  Em C  
                                                      C - 
There's no such thing as no regrets, and baby it's alright

           G
I'm not running 
          C
I'm not hiding 
            G
I'm not reaching 
            D                                   Em
I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 
               C
Gonna pull my soul in 
        Em   D/F#
And I'm al - most - 
           G
I'm not running now 
          C
I'm not hiding out
            G
I'm not reaching here 
            D                                   G
I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 
               C
Gonna pull my soul in
        Em   D/F#  G   C
And I'm al - most home
        Em   D/F#   G   C
And I'm al - most home
        Em    D/F#  G   
And I'm al - most home

G  C  Em  C - fade out
