[Verse]

G       G/F#    Em
You and I both know

Em      C               G
There is nothing more to say

C               G
Chances shutter shining eyes

    D            Am
And turn to face away
 
 
[Chorus]

C                     G
Leaning on the window sill

G                  C                       
You could write me someday and 

            G
I think you will

G                C           
We could see the sadness as 

    C/B    Am
A gift and still

         D
Feel too heavy to hold
 
 
[Verse]

G    G/F#   Em
Snow falling

Em    C            G
Try to keep from calling

C                G
Watch the spring turn to winter

D              Am
Fireflies all frozen
 
 
[Chorus]

C              G
The seasons go fast

G             C                 
Thinking that this one 

          G
was gonna last

G         C            C/B      
Maybe the question was too 

       Am    D
Much to ask
 
 
[Verse]

G         G/F#      Em
Searching for your eyes

Em           C          G
All I see are blue skies

G         C                 
And that old man beats 

     G
His crooked cane

     D           Am
It's time to let go
 
 
[Chorus]

C                     G
Leaning on the window sill

G                  C                  
You could write me someday 

              G
and I bet you will

We could see the sadness as

A gift and still

Feel too heavy to hold
 
 
[Chorus]

The seasons go so fast

G             C               
Thinking that this one 

          G
was gonna last
G         C            C/B       
Maybe the question was too

        Am    D
 Much to ask
 
 
[Verse]

G       G/F#    Em
You and I could see

Em      C          G
Into the same eternity

C            G       
Every second brimming 

D          Am
With a majesty
 
 
[Chorus]

C                 G
Kiss so sweet, so fine

G                  C              
You could hear the music 

          G
Inside my mind

G       C           C/B     Am
And you showed me a place 

  Am
To find

D
Even when I'm old
 
 
[Chorus]

C                     G
Leaning on the window sill

You could write me someday 

               G
and I hope you will
