Drops In The Lake

Tom : Em
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 (2x)

[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 (2x)

[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 (2x)

[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?
