When I reach to hold you, I'll still be alone
                D              Em       G         A            D   Em   G   A
When I hear the ringin of the telephone
  Em             G
I'll think it is you
  Em             G     A
It will not be true

 Bm       G        D          A
I know why the river runs
  Bm       G        D          A
To a place somewhere far away
  Bm       G        D          A 
I know why the sky is cryin
  Bm       G        D          A                Bm   G    D     A     Bm   G  
  D    A
When there aren't any words to say

A      
I could play the message that you left for me
               D            Em           G         A           D   Em   G   A
I can hear your voice and I could still believe
  Em                            G
That you will soon me home
  Em                        G    A
But you will never come


  Bm       G        D          A
I know why the river runs

When there aren't any words to say


   Bm                                   G
There's a silence that I don't want to hear
   Bm                               A
There's a hole now where my heart used to be
   G                                        Bm
They say that healing comes in time
                    A                      G            Bm   G   D   A   (x4)
But I don't know what that means

  Em                   G
I lie here for so long
  Em                   G         A
But you will never come


 Bm       G        D          A

I know why the sky is cryin
 Bm       G        D          A                     Bm    G     D      A
