Intro: Am

Am
Whenever I remember you and I 

So many years since you were by my side 

And still my thoughts you occupy 

And still your face is frozen in my mind
             Esus4
It’s hard to win, easy to lose, we play a game we cannot choose

As steady as a rocking horse, as subtle as a bruise

   Am
I could’ve been the one still with you but something in the way

Brought our private universe into the cold light of day
      Esus4
Just when I have forgotten you that’s when the longing starts

Nostalgia seeps into my head and I realize that I’ve been

Dm                     Am
Waiting for all these years   (X 2)

Am
Whenever I’m alone in troubled times

My silent screams, my innocence, my crimes

I wish that you were still here by my side

Without you here the darkness magnifies
             Esus4
It’s hard to win, easy to lose, we play a game we cannot choose

As steady as a rocking horse, as subtle as a bruise

Dm                     Am
Waiting for all these years   (X 2)

   Am
I could’ve been the one to love you but something interfered

Took away the innocence and our world just disappeared
      Esus4
Just when I think I’m over you something unlocks the pas

Memories pour into my brain and then the longing starts

Dm                     Am
Waiting for all these years   (X 4)

Practise the change: Esus4 ↔ Am
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
