Lyrics

[Intro]
| D | Am | G | Bm |
| D | Em | G | -  |
| D | Am | G | Bm |
| D | Em | G | -  |

[Verse 1]
D               Am           G
 Remember the time we were both eye to eye
         Bm                   D
And we both knew the reasons why
                  Em                     G
It seemed like we faced the world on our own
D               Am          G
 Before we collide can we just take a moment
     Bm                     D
Collecting reflections of this
        Em                     G
And remember the paths that we chose

[Chorus]
Bm
  Spring lied to us this year again
C
 I can't stand to face the fear again
G                     D                    C
 But you could always laugh about those things
Bm
  It's enough to make a man feel sour
C
 Burning minutes every day by the hour
G                 D                      C
 Just to end up gone like everything else

[Break]
| D | Am | G | Bm |
| D | Em | G | -  |

[Verse 2]
D                Am            G
 Let go of the pain and hold onto the rhythm
        Bm                    D
It's consciously held back in you
                  Em                         G
You're drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest
D              Am
 The past is a hell,
          G
it can creep up inside you
     Bm                   D
So let me remind you of this
         Em                     G
It's the reason your troubles exist

[Chorus]
Bm
  Spring lied to us again this year
C
 And still I can't stand to face the fear
G                D                 C
 Will you always laugh about those things?
Bm
  It's enough to make a man stay humble
C
 Every day is just a new chance to stumble
G                 D                      C
 Just to end up gone like everything else

[Verse 3]
D            Am           G
 If ever a time comes around in the wheel
        Bm                        D
To replace where we stand side by side
         Em                G
We'll be ready and able to fly
D                Am
 Away from the mire
          G                      Bm                  D
And the senseless decisions of somebody's wasted desire
            Em                         G
Through the smoke and the wind and the fire

[Chorus]
Bm
  Spring lied to us this year again
C
 I can't stand to face the fear again
G                     D                 C
 But you could always laugh about those things
Bm
  It's enough to make a man feel sour
C
 Burning minutes every day by the hour
G                 D
 Just to end up gone like everything else
