B
I woke up thinking you were still here
E
my hands shaking with regret
B
I've held this dream for such a long long time
                   G#m
and I wanna get up
                       E                         F#
to the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
 
that beats, that beats like a rolling drum
 
 
B
I saw you standing on the corner
E
I saw you standing on your own
B
and I get the feeling that it's, it's all a dream
                   G#m
and I wanna get up
                       E                         F#
to the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
 
that beats, that beats like a drum
 
 
B
when I fall asleep I can see your face
       E
what I lost in you I will not replace
            G#m
and I could run away, I could let them down
    E         F#
but I will remember your light
 
 
B
your light it follows me in darkness
E
I'm trying hard but I can't win
B
and I've played the victim for a long long time
                    G#m
and I wanna grow up
                          E                              F#
from the rhythm of a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart
 
it leads just like a river runs
 
 
B
tonight I sit over the parkway
E
the summer's gone and I'm alone
B
and I get the feeling that you're somewhere close
                   G#m
and I wanna get up
                          E                            F#
to the rhythm of your wild, to the rhythm of your wild heart
 
it beats, been beating since you've gone
 
 
B
when I fall asleep I can see your face
       E
what I lost in you I will not replace
            G#m
and I could run away, I could let them down
    E        F#
but I will remember
 
 
B
when I fall asleep I can see your face
       E
what I lost in you I will not replace
            G#m
and I could run away, I could let them down
    E             F#             E         F#              G#m
and I know you're gone but still I will remember your light
 
B               G#m
I will remember
B               G#m
I will remember
B               G#m
I will remember
B               G#m
I will remember
 
B
and if you see me in the darkness
E
I hope you know I'm not alone
B
I carry you with every breath I take
        G#m              E
I won't let up, I won't let up
 F#               B
until the wind is gone
