Don't Shut Me Down

Tom : Bb
Bb
A while ago I heard the sound of children's laughter
Gm
Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park
Cm
This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour
F Bb F/A
The sun is going down, it's getting dark
Bb
I realise I'm cold
F/A
The rain begins to pour
  Bb/D       Gm
( Gm(add9) Gm )
As I watch the windows on the second floor
Eb Eb Bb/D Bb F
The lights are on, it's time to go (ohooo..)
Bb Eb/G
It's time at last to let him know
( Cm F )
Cm F
I believe it would be fair to say
Bb Gm
You look bewildered
Cm Ab
And you wonder why I'm here today
Eb/G Bb
And so you should, I would
Eb Bb/D
When I left I'd had enough
Cm Eb/Bb
But in thе shape and form I ..appear now
Ab
I have lеarned to cope
Eb/G Ab Bb G
And love and hope is why I am here now

The apartment hasn't changed at all
F C
I got to say I'm glad

Once these rooms were witness to our love

My tantrums and increasing.. frustration

To not so bad in my transformation
