Drops In The Lake

Em A  Em A

[Verse 1]
Em                 A
I got by but I’m tired of myself
     Em                     A
And doubt that I ever will find someone else
Em                     A                        C
Lonely days fall like drops in the lake of our love
        B7                   Am        
I just want it to be like it was
       B7                    Am        B7
And I want you to be as you were long ago

[Verse 2]
Em                A
I go down to the edge of the lake
        Em                              A
Where I wait through the night for the dawn light to break
   Em                       A                        C
Memories of you crash like waves on the shore of my mind
       B7                       Am
And I pray that the stars will align
       B7                    Am       B7
I just want us to be who we were long ago

[Instrumental]
Em Bm A  x2

[Bridge]
       Em   Bm   A
I just want what was
        C                           B           B7
How I yearn for the years we were young and in love

Em A  x2

[Verse 3]
Em                  A
I get by, but it's hard to forget
        Em                      A
In the smoke of denial and the fog of regret
Em                         A                      C
Dismal and darksome like clouds in the sky of my soul
       B7            
And I hear thunder roll

Em                  A
I look up at the uncaring sky
         Em                    F#m         A
With a prayer on my lips and a tear in my eye
Em                            A                        C
Oh, how the heart burns like fire in the light of the moon
        B7                         Em
I just hope you'll be comin' back soon

[Instrumental]
Em Bm A  x4

[Outro]
           Em  Bm    A
You're my long-lost love
        C                           B           B7 
Can we wind back the wheels to the way that it was?
