Lyrics

[Verse 1]
D Cadd9   G                  Cadd9
I seem to recognize your face
G D   Cadd9   G
  Haunting, familiar,
            Cadd9   G
yet I can't seem to place it
D          Cadd9    G                         Cadd9
Cannot find     the candle of thought to light     your
G
name
D   Cadd9     G                  Cadd9 G
Lifetimes are catching up with me

[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9      Asus2               Cadd9
All  these changes taking place
  Asus2                  Cadd9
I wish I'd seen the place
    Asus2           Em
But no   one's ever taken me

[Chorus]
D          Cadd9         G     Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
D          Cadd9         G     Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away

[Verse 2]
D Cadd9   G              Cadd9
I swear I recognize your breath
G D       Cadd9     G                Cadd9  G
  Memories     like fingerprints are slowly raising
D      Cadd9      G            Cadd9   G
Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not  my former
D             Cadd9       G                   Cadd9 G
It's hard when     you're stuck upon the shelf

[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9           Asus2               Cadd9
I    changed by not  changing at all
      Asus2            Cadd9
Small town predicts my fate 
   Asus2                   Em
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see

[Verse 3]
D      Cadd9 G              Cadd9
I just wanna scream "Hello!"
G D  Cadd9     G
  My God  it's been so long
      Cadd9         G
Never dreamed you'd return
D       Cadd9    G        Cadd9  G
But now here you are, and here I am
D                  Cadd9         G Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts     they fade away  

[Chorus]
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade fade away
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade fade away
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade a____way
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade fade away
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade fade away
D          Cadd9         G    Cadd9 G
Hearts and thoughts they fade fade away

[Fade-Out]
D          Cadd9         G
Hearts and thoughts they fade
