Name (1995) (video)

 
    G - D - C  - Em - C ~ (2x)
 
            G                           D                           C
1. And even though the moment passed me by
      Em           D        C   ~
    I still can't turn away,
                G                             D                             C
     cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
           Em        D             C   ~
    got tossed along the way.
             G                      D                      C
    And letters that you never meant to send
          Em          D          C  ~
    get lost or thrown away.
 
         Em                           D
And now we're grown up orphans
         C
that never knew their names,
       Em                   D                         C
we don't belong to no one, that's a shame.
       Em                        D             C
But you could hide beside me maybe for a while
     Em               D                 C
and I won't tell no one your name.
  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - G 
And I won't tell  em your name.

2. Scars are souvenirs you never lose
          Em        D       C   ~
    the past is never far.
      G                         D                               C
    Did you lose yourself somewhere out there ?
                  Em     D       C     ~
    Did you get to be a star ?
              G                         D                       C
    And don't it make you sad to know that life
         Em              D         C     ~
    is more than who we are ?
 
          Em                     D
You grew up way too fast
                            C
and now there's nothing to believe
       Em                 D                   C
and reruns all become our history.
  Em                           D               C
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
     Em               D                   C
and I won't tell no one your name.

3.    I think about you all the time,
         Em         D           C        ~
    but I don't need the same.
          G                          D                      C
    It's lonely where you are come back down
          Em        D                   C
    and I won't tell  em your name.
 
+  D - G
