Intro: (G) (G/C) (G) (G/C) 
 
 
(G) (G/C) 
In waves of people you can lose your feet 
(G) (G/C) 
You’ve got to stay hard to the ground 
(G) (G/C) 
It gets so easy now to lose your way 
(G) (G/C) 
When you’re ever outward bound 
(C/F) (C/D) 
(A) church bell ringing in the fading light 
(C/F) (C/D) 
Stops you dead like a cold steel wall 
(F/G) (F/C) 
The ghost of yester-years is touching you 
(C/F) (G/D) 
And as sure as god you’ll fall 
 
 
(G) (G/C) (G/A) (F/D) 
And I see you 
(G) (G/C) (G/A) (F/D) 
And I see me 
(G) (G/C) (G/A) (F/D) 
I see it all 
(G) (G/C) (G/A) (F/D) 
Like it used to be 
 
(C/F) (C/D) (C/F) (C/D) 
 
(C/F) (C/D) 
And all the reasons why you started out 
(C/F) (C/D) 
They hit you hard with every bell 
(F/G) (F/C) 
The choir practice in the empty hall 
(C/F) (C/D) 
Is a sound you know so well 
(C/F) (C/D) 
Like something lost inside your overcoat 
(C/F) (C/D) 
You find it later by mistake 
(F/G) (F/C) 
You lost it all a thousand years ago 
(C/F) (G/D) 
And you pray it’s not too late 
 
 
And I see you 
And I see me 
I see it all like a diary 
 
And I see you 
And I see me 
I see it all like it used to be 
 
I’m gonna write it in a diary 
Now I remember everything 
Yeah I remember how it used to be 
With every note that choir boy sings 
 
And I see you 
And I see me 
I see it all like a diary
