Capo 3
=
[G] A while ago, I heard the sound of children's laughter
[Em] Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park
[Am] This wooden bench is gettin' harder by the hour
The [D] sun is goin' down, it's gettin' [G] dark [D7]
I [C] realise I'm cold, the [D] rain begins to pour
As I [Bm] watch the windows on the second [Em] floor
[Am] The lights are on, it's time to go (ooh)
[D] It's time at last, to let him know [Am] [D]
I be [Am] lieve it would be fair to say [D] ..."You look be [G] wildered" [Em]
And you [Am] wonder why I'm here today [D] ...And so you should, I [G] would
When I [C] left I felt, I've had enough [G] But, in the shape and [Am] form I ap [G] pear now [C]
I have [F] learned to cope, and [C] love and hope is [F] why I am [G] here [E7] now
[A] And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
[F#m] I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[Bm] I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
I'm [E] fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me [A] down [E7]
I'm [A] not the one you knew I'm [E] now, and then combined
And I'm [F#m] askin' you to have an open [D] mind (And I [A] won't be the same)
[D] I'm not the same this time ar [A] ound (ooh)
[E] I'm fired up, don't shut me [F#m] down [Bm] [E]
Will you [Bm] leave me standin' in the hall? [E] ...Or let me [A] enter? [F#m]
The a [Bm] partment hasn't changed at all [E] ...I've got to say, "I'm [A] glad" [F#m]
Once these [D] rooms were witness to our love [A] My tantrums and in [Bm] creasing frust [A] ration [D]
But I [G] go from mad, to [D] not so mad In [G] my transfor [A] mation [F#7]
[B] And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
[G#m] I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[C#m] I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
I'm [F#] fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me [B] down [F#7]
I'm [B] not the one you knew I'm [F#] now, and then combined
And I'm [G#m] askin' you to have an open [E] mind (And I [B] won't be the same)
[E] I'm not the same this time ar [B] ound (ooh)
[F#] I'm fired up, don't shut me [E] down
You [F#] ask me not to leave Well, here I am again
And I [B] love you still and so I won't [G#m] pretend
I have [E] learnt to cope, and [B] love and hope is [E] why I am [F#] here now [B]
