Lyrics

The

(Fm)I can’t re call,

but I’m star ing at what (Fm)once

(Bdim7)was clear the wall

that (Ab)sep a (Ab)rat ed East and West,

and (Gm)now they meet a midst the broad day light.

So, this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)you are

and this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)I am,

some where (Bbsus)be tween (Bb)un sure

and a (Bbsus)hun

dred.

It’s hard, (Fm)how I must con fess,

but I’m bank ing on the (Fm)rest

(Bdim7)to clear a way,

’cause (Ab)we have (Ab)spo ken ev ’ry thing,

and (Gm)ev ’ry thing short of “I love day you.”

You right (Bbsus)is where (Bb)you are

from right (Bbsus)is where (Bb)I am,

some where (Bbsus)be tween (Bb)un sure

and a (Bbsus)hun

dred.

It’s hard,

Some where (Bbsus)be tween (Bb)un sure

and a (Bbsus)hun

dred.

And, (Eb)who’s

to say it’s (Cm9)wrong,

and (Eb)who’s

to say that (Cm9)it’s not right, where

we should (Cm9)be for now?

So, this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)you are

and this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)I am.

So, this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)you are

and this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)I’ve been,

and this (Bbsus)is where (Bb)I’ve been,

some where (Bbsus)be tween (Bb)un sure

and a (Bbsus)hun

dred.
