 EmD#CBbAm7
It's quiet now, and what it brings is everything  
 EmD#CBbAm7
Comes calling back a brilliant night, I'm still awake  
 EmD#CBbAm7
I looked ahead I'm sure I saw you there  
 EmD#CBbAm7
You don't need me to tell you now, that nothing can compare 
CHORUS
 GD
 You might have laughed if I told you
 CAm
You might have hidden a frown
 GD
You might have succeeded in changing me
 CAm
 I might have been turned around
 GD
It's easier to leave than to be left behind
 CAm
Leaving was never my proud
 GD
Leaving New York never easy
 CAm
 I saw the lights fading out
(Same Chords As Above)
VERSE
Now life is sweet and what it brings I tried to take...
The loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in wait
And all not lost still in my eye, the shadow of necklace across your thigh
I might have lived my life in a dream, but i swear it, this is real
Memory fuses and shatters like glass, mercurial future, forget the past
But it's you, it's what i feel.
CHORUS
You might have laughed if I told you (it's pulling me apart)
You might have hidden a frown (change)
You might have succeeded in changing me (it's pulling me apart)
I might have been turned around (change)
It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart)
Leaving was never my proud (change)
Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart)
I saw the light fading out
BRIDGE
 EmD#EmD#Em
          You find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart
 D#
You find it in your heart, change...
 GD
I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart)
 CAm
I told you ,I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change)
 GD
I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart)
 CAm
I told you, I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change)
CHORUS
You might have laughed if I told you (forever, forever,I told You, forever)
You might have hidden a frown (change)
You might have succeeded in changing me (it's pulling me apart)
I might have been turned around (change)
It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart)
Leaving was never my proud (change)
Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart)
I saw the light fading out (change)
Leaving new york never easy (it's pulling me apart)
I saw the light fading out (change)
Leaving new york never easy (it's pulling me apart)
I saw the light fading out (change)
