(C)Man y days
(G)fell a way with (Em)noth ing to show.
And the (C)walls kept tum bl ing down in the cit y that we (Em)love.
Great (C)clouds roll o ver the hills bring ing dark ness from a (Em)bove.
But if you close your eyes
does it al most feel like noth ing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes
does it al most feel like you’ve been here be fore?
How (C)am I gon na be an op ti mist a bout this?
How (C)am I gon na be an op ti mist a bout this?
Eh, eh, oh, eh, oh.
