Tomorrow & Me
Intro: G9   /   Gm7   /   Am   /   Cm   /   D

G9

I've forgotten how long I've been sitting here
Gm7
Watching my reflection in a disappearing beer
     Am
The loneliness is so thick you can slice it
Cm                                 D
Emptiness is too much for me to fight it

But while tomorrow must be met, it seems
Life's become a jewel that dimly gleams
From it's perch atop a ring that's slightly out of round
Casting the reflection of a crying clown

Eb  -  D                            G
Ohhh-ohhh the closeness is gone
Eb-D                          D7
Sti-ill the memory lives on

The distance now is growing as the highway sings
Changing the complexion and the scheme of things
And as the world begins to turn I feel the time has come
To accept apparent loss is a battle won

So with that in mind I close my eyes and kiss your cheek
Push the loneliness aside and stand on shaky feet
Then reimplant the smile that never really leaves
Gently place my heart back on my sleeve

Eb      D                            G
Ohhh-ohhh the closeness is gone
Eb  D                         G    Bb Am G
Sti-ill the memory lives on - oh-oh-on

The distance now is growing as the highway sings
Changing the complexion and the scheme of things
And as the world begins to turn I feel the time has come
To accept apparent loss is a battle won

So with that in mind I close my eyes and kiss your cheek
Push the loneliness aside and stand on shaky feet
Then reimplant the smile that never really leaves
Gently place my heart back on my sleeve

Ohhh-ohhh the closeness is gone
Sti-ill the memory lives o-o-on
