Standard (EADGBE)

If it seems to you that I am fading

Everytime I try to talk to you

The words I'm speaking distort the view

And then I end up thinkin' what can I do

 Now you're slippin' away for a new

Always hoping that the day will come

When I can face it, won't have to run

When all there has been is yet to come

 When I don't hide my face from the sun

 And I know it's myself it's not you

Chorus

I can see everything it's all in your smile that brings

All of the special things about you

If you could feel the way that I do today we could

Find us a better way to get through

Everytime I climb into your eyes

I get so wasted and hypnotized

But there is one thing you can't disguise

That you're slippin' away for a new

Baby if I could control the time

Then I could stop it and re-define

Just what is real and how I've been so blind

I could put all the words into rhyme

And I know it's myself, it's not you

Chorus

If it seems to you that I am fading
