[INTRO]
[Em] [C] [G] [D] [Em]
[VERSE]
Here I sit smack dab in the middle [C]
[C]Tomorrow is a crazy riddle
I [G]wish I had a crystal ball
I [D]wish I could see five years on [Em]
[VERSE]
Like candle rockets, you and I [C]
Ooh's and ah's and shouts and sighs [G]
[G]Is this the storm before the calm?
I [D]wish I could see five years on_[C]_
[CHORUS]
But I can't[G] and you don't [D]
And you try [Em]and I won't
A [C]broken trust can [G]be repaired
But it'll [D]take some time to [Em]get us there [C]
And I will[G] and you won't [D]
And you try [Em]and I don't
We [C]lose a little [G]higher ground
Every [D]time we go around [Em]
[VERSE]
[Em]We always seem to look behind
Say,[C] "If I'd known at the time” [G]
[G]There's no one to read my palm
I [D]wish I could see five years on [Em]
[VERSE]
[Em]If we fail or if we fly
No [C]one can say that we didn't try [G]
[G]Has the final card been drawn?
I [D]wish I could see five years on_[C]_
[CHORUS]
But I can't[G] and you don't [D]
And you try [Em]and I won't
A [C]broken trust can [G]be repaired
But it'll [D]take some time to [Em]get us there [C]
And I will[G] and you won't [D]
And you try [Em]and I don't
We [C]lose a little [G]higher ground
Every [D]time we go around
[D]Every time we go around
[BRIDGE]
And a[C]round and [G]round
We're [D]lost, then we're [Em]found
We [C]can't change the [G]words
The [D]ones we wish we hadn't heard [Em]
[VERSE]
[Em]There's no map or twelve-step guide
[C]We do what we can't justify
It's [G]always dark before the dawn
I [D]wish I could see five years on [Em]
[VERSE]
[Em]I promised you and you promise me
And[C] still there are no guarantees
Is [G]this the last verse of the song?
I [D]wish [N.C.]I could see five years on_[Em]__ [C]
[CHORUS]
But I can't[G] and you don't [D]
And you try [Em]and I won't
A [C]broken trust can [G]be repaired
But it'll [D]take some time to [Em]get us there [C]
And I will[G] and you won't [D]
And you try [Em]and I don't
We [C]lose a little [G]higher ground
Every [D]time we go around
