Hello?.. it's me
Em G D C
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
Em G D C
To go over... everything
Em G
They say that time's supposed to heal ya
D C
But I ain't done much healing
Em G D C
Hello?.. can you hear me?
Em G D C
I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be
Em G D C
When we were younger... and free
Em G D C
I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet
Em D
There's such a difference...
Bm C Em D C
...between us and a million miles
Em C G D
'Hello' from the other side
Em C G D
I must've called a thousand times
Em C G D
To tell you 'I'm sorry, for everything that I've done'
Em C G D
But when I call, you never seem to be home
Em C G D
'Hello' from the outside
Em C G D
At least I can say that I've tried
Em C G D
To tell you I'm sorry, for breaking your heart
Em C G D Em G D C
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore
Em G D C
Hello?.. how are you?
Em G D C
It's so typical of me to talk about myself, I'm sorry
Em G D C
I hope... that you're well
Em G D C
Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happened?
Em D
It's no secret...
Bm C Em D C
...that the both of us are running out of time
Em C G D
So, 'hello' from the other side (other side)
Em C G D
I must've called a thousand times (thousand times)

Can I have a moment, before I go?

'Cause I've been by myself all night long

Hoping you're someone I used to know

My God, this reminds me

Of when we were young...
C Em F G7
Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time

You've gotta stop holding me the way you do

Oh, and if I'm not the one for you
Bm A
Why have we been through what we have been through?
G Em
It's so cold out here

In your wilderness

Now I want you to be my keeper

But not if you're so reckless

If you're gonna let me down
Let me down gently Em
Don't pretend that you don't want me

Our love ain't water under the bridge

Everybody tells me it's 'bout time that I moved on
Bm E
And I need to learn to lighten up and learn how to be young
G A
But my heart is a valley, it's so shallow and man-made
Bm A
I'm scared to death if I let you in, you'll see I'm just a fake
G A
Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch
Bm A
But I know that's just me 'cause nothing ever is enough
G A
When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea
Bm A
There was something in the water, now that something's in me
G A
Oh, I can't go back
Bm A
But the reeds are growing out of my fingertips
G A
I can't go back
E
To the river
Bm A
But it's in my roots, in my veins
E
In my blood and I'll slay
Bm A E
every heart that I use to heal the pain
Bm A
But it's in my roots, in my veins
E
In my blood and I'll slay

every heart that I use to heal the pain

So I blame it on River lea

Yeah, I blame it on River lea
A E
The River Lea, The River Lea
G
I should probably tell you now
A
before is way too late
Bm
that I never meant to hurt you
A
or to lie straight to your face
G
Consider this my apology
A
I know it's years in advance
Bm
But I rather say it now in case
A
I never get the chance
G A
No, I can't go back
Bm A
But the reeds are growing out of my fingertips
G A
I can't go back
E
To the river
Bm A
But it's in my roots, in my veins

In my blood and I'll slay

every heart that I use to heal the pain

But it's in my roots, in my veins

In my blood and I'll slay
