Lyrics

The (Gm)how I can’t re call,

but I’m (Gm)star ing at what (C#dim7)once was clear the (Dm)wall

that (Bb)sep a rat ed (F)East and West,

and (Am)now they meet a (Cmaj7)midst the broad day (F)light.

So, this is (C)where you are

and this is (C)where I am,

some where be (C)tween un sure

and a hun

(Am9)dred.

It’s (Gm)hard, I must con fess,

but I’m (Gm)bank ing on the (C#dim7)rest to clear a (Dm)way,

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

and (Am)ev ’ry thing short (Cmaj7)of “I love day (F)you.”

You right is (C)where you are

from right is (C)where I am,

some where be (C)tween un sure

and a hun

(Am9)dred.

It’s (F)dred.

Some where be (C)tween un sure

and a hun

(Am9)dred.

And (F)who’s

to (Cmaj7)say it’s (Dm)wrong,

and (F)who’s

to (Dm7)say that it’s not (F)right, where

(Cmaj7)we should (Dm7)be for (F)now?

So, this is (C)where you are

and this is (C)where I am.

So, this is (C)where you are

and this is (C)where I’ve been,

and this is (C)where I’ve been,

some where be (C)tween un sure

and a hun

(F)dred.
