[Intro]

F#m Bm E C#7sus4 F#m


[Verse 1]

F#m
I'm here

Bm
You're there

E
Come closer

C#7sus4 F#m
Tonight I'm lonely

F#m
Come here

Bm
With me

E
I want it

C#7sus4 F#m
The way it used to be


[Chorus]

F#m
What is left of love?

Bm
Tell me who would even care?

E
So much time has passed

C#7sus4 F#m
I'd still meet you anywhere

F#m
Water under bridge

Bm
Evening after day

E
What is left of love here

C#7sus4 F#m
That didn't drift away?


[Verse 2]

F#m Bm
I can remember days of sun

E
We knew our lives had just begun


We could do anything

C#7sus4 F#m
We're fearless when we're young

F#m Bm
Under the moon, address unknown

E
I can remember nights in Rome


I thought that love would last

C#7sus4 F#m
A promise set in stone


[Bridge]

Bm E A F#m
I'd survive with only memories

Bm E A F#m
If I could change the way I feel

Bm E A F#m
But I want more than only memories

Bm E A
A human touch to make them real


[Verse 3]

F#m Bm
Another day, another dream

E
Over the bridge an empty scene

C#7sus4
We'd spend the weekend lost in bed

F#m
And float upstream

F#m Bm
I don't know why we moved away

E
Lost in the here and now we strayed


Into a New York zone

C#7sus4 F#m
Our promise was betrayed


[Pre-instrumental]

F#m Bm
I was there caught on Tenth Avenue

E
You elsewhere with Culver City blues

C#7sus4 F#m
Then and there I knew that I'd lost you


[Instrumental]

F#m Bm E C#7sus4 F#m [twice]


[Chorus]

F#m
What is left of love?

Bm
Tell me who will even care?

E
So much time has passed

C#7sus4 F#m
I'd still meet you anywhere

F#m
Water under bridge

Bm
Evening after day

E
What is left of love here

C#7sus4 F#m
That didn't drift away?


[Pre-coda]

F#m
Don't give me all your northern pain

Bm
Don't sell me New York in the rain

E
Let's leave our promises behind

C#7sus4 F#m
Rewind and try again


[Coda]

F#m
What remains in time

Bm
That didn't fade away?

E
Sometimes I need to see

C#7sus4 F#m
The way it used to be
