Standard (EADGBE)
the words go a little like this...
Verse 1
Oh, I had nine lives but I lost all of them
And I've been searching in the night
And I've been searching in the rain
I tried to find them, but they disappeared
They walked away, they dressed in black
They left my side and all I say is
That I wasted time when I looked for them
For now I know that things gone past
Are never to be found again
No never, never again
I had nine lives but lost all of them...
Verse 2
I had a plan but never finished it
And I've been searching for the thought
And I've been searching in a haze
I try all days, to remember it
But now the blueprint in my mind has gone
My mind forgot the colour of direction
And my eyes they see the hands
That could've built that could've constructed
The empire in my mind
The empire I'll never find
I had a plan but that was where it ended....ended.....
