Intro

[Gm] [Gm7] [F] [Gm] [F]

Verse 1

[Gm]

I still leave the hallway light on

[F] [Bb]

Though there's no one coming home

[F]

Some nights I hear the old floor creaking

[Gm]

And forget that I'm alone

Verse 2

[Eb]

Your coffee cup is in the cupboard

[Bb]

Where I left it years ago

[F]

Funny how the smallest things

[Gm]

Are the hardest things to let go

Verse 3

[Eb] [Cm7]

I thought the years would teach me

[Bb]

How to carry on somehow

[F]

But time can change a thousand things

[Eb]

It hasn't changed you now

Chorus

[Bb]

I've known other hands,

[F]

I've walked other roads

[Gm] [Eb]

I've watched the seasons come and go

[Bb] [F]

I told myself that I was finally free

[Gm] [Eb]

That the past was where it ought to be

[Bb] [F]

But somewhere underneath these years

[Gm] [Eb]

Your memory still lives here

[Bb] [F]

Now I know what I could never prove

[Eb] [F] [Bb]

No one ever came close to you

[F] [Gm] [Eb] [Bb] [F]

Nothing could replace you Nothing ever will

[Cm7] [F] [Eb]

I've spent a lifetime moving on

[F] [Bb]

And somehow love stood still

Verse 4

[Gm]

I remember Sunday mornings

[Bb]

Rain against the window glass

[F]

You would hum beside the fire

[Gm]

While the whole world wandered past

Verse 5

[Eb]

There was nothing extraordinary

[Bb]

In the way you said my name

[F]

But I would give this life I've lived

[Gm]

To hear it just once again

Verse 6

[Eb]

The photograph is fading

[Bb]

But your eyes are still the same

[F]

And every road I travelled

[Gm]

Somehow led me back again

Verse 7

[F] [Eb]

I used to call it weakness

[Bb]

To remember what was gone

[F]

Now I think perhaps some memories

[Eb]

Are simply meant to carry on

Chorus

[Bb]

I've known other hands,

[F]

I've walked other roads

[Gm] [Eb]

I've seen the cities no one knows

[Bb] [F]

I built a life and learned to smile

[Gm] [Eb]

I thought I'd buried you after all this while

[Bb] [F]

But when the evening settles down

[Gm] [Eb]

And silence fills this empty house

[Bb] [F]

There is one truth I can't undo

[Eb] [F] [Bb]

No one ever replaced you

[F] [Gm] [Eb]

Nothing could replace you

[Bb] [F]

Nothing ever will

[Cm7] [F] [Eb]

I've spent a lifetime moving on

[Cm7] [F] [Bb]

And somehow love stood still

Verse 8

[Bb]

My hair has turned to silver

[Gm]

The years have left their mark

[Eb]

I've learned that growing older

[Bb]

Doesn't make the distance dark

Verse 9

[F] [Bb] [F]

I've forgiven what I couldn't

[Gm]

I've accepted what I lost

[Eb]

Some things are not forgotten

[F]

No matter what they cost

Verse 10

[Bb]

I don't need you to return now

[F] [Gm]

I don't need another chance

[Eb]

I finally stopped pretending

[F] [Bb]

That every love can be replaced

Bridge

[F] [Gm]

Maybe love was never meant

[Eb]

To disappear completely

[Bb]

Maybe some hearts leave a mark

[F] [Gm]

That time cannot defeat

[Eb]

And if I could go back there

[Bb] [F7]

I wouldn't ask you to stay

[Cm7] [Eb]

I'd only tell you what I couldn't

[F] [F7]

When you walked away

[Cm]

You were the one I didn't know

[Cm7] [F]

I would spend my life remembering

Chorus

[Bb]

I've known other hands

[F]

I've walked other roads

[Gm] [Eb]

I've watched this old world change and grow

[Bb] [F7]

And I don't regret the life I've lived

[Eb] [F]

Or all the things the years have given

[Bb] [F]

But standing here beneath this morning sky

[Gm] [Eb]

I finally understand why

[Bb] [F]

Some loves don't need another day

[Eb] [F] [Bb]

To prove they never went away

[F] [Gm]

Nothing could replace you

[Eb]

And I don't need it to

[Bb] [F]

I finally made my peace with that

[Bb]

And I can say it now

Outro

[Bb]

I loved you I lost You

[F] [Gm]

I carried you this far

[Eb] [F]

And after all these years

[Bb] [F]

I know exactly what you are

[Eb] [F] [Bb]

The one love No one could replace

[Gm]

The house is quiet now The morning light is new

[Eb] [F] [Bb]

I close the door behind me And I don't look back

[F] [Bb]

Nothing could replace you
