Intro : Am   D  (x2)
 
 
 G  A while ago I heard the sound of children's laughter
 Em  Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park
 Am  This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour
The  D sun is going down, it's  G getting d D/F#  ark
 
 
I  G  realise I'm cold
 D/F#  The rain begins to pour
As I  G watch the windows on the second  Em  floor
 C The lights are on, it's time to  G  go
 D It's time at  G last to let him  C/E  know
 
 
(Instrumental) : Am   D 
 
 
I  Am  believe it would be fair to say
 D You look be G wildered  Em 
And you  Am wonder why I'm here to F  day
And  C/E so you should, I  G  would
 
 
When I  C  left I'd had enough
 G/B But in thе shape and  Am form I … G appear  C/G  now
I have  F  lеarned to cope
And  C/E love and hope is  F why I am  G here  E  now
 
 
 A  And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
 F#m  I'm fired up, don't shut me down
 Bm  I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
I'm  E fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me  A down  E 
 
 
I'm  A  not the one you knew
I'm  E/G#  now and then combined
And I'm  F#m asking you to have an open m D  ind
 D I'm not the same this time a A/C#  round
 E I'm fired  A up, don't shut me  D/F#  down
 
 
(Instrumental) : Bm   E 
 
 
 Bm Will you leave me standing in the hall  E 
 E Or let me  A enter ? F#m 
The  Bm apartment hasn't changed at all  G 
I g D ot to say I'm  A  glad
 
 
Once these  D  rooms were witness to our love
 A/C# My tantrums and  Bm increasing frus A tration D/A 
But I  G  go from mad
To  D/F# not so bad in  G my transfor A mation … F#7 
 
 
 B  And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
 G#m  I'm fired up, don't shut me down
 C#m  I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
I'm  F# fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me  B down  F# 
 
 
I'm  B  not the one you knew (Im not the one you knew)
I'm  F#  now and then combined
And I'm  G#m asking you to have an open  E  mind now
 E I'm not the same this time around    B 
 F# I'm fired up, don't shut me  E  down
 
 
You  F#  asked me not to leave
Well,  F#  here I am again
And I  B love you still and so I won't  G#m  pretend
 
 
I have  E  learned to cope
And  B love and hope is  E why I am  F#  here now …
