 I'm pretty sure this is the real thing EXCEPT for the intro..i'm really not sure about
 but it works well nonetheless..give it a try and make changes where you see fit. Cheers!

 (INTRO)
 
 C               Am              C      Am  
 The way things used to be, well not anymore
 F          C        C/B     Am    
 Close your eyes, open up your door
 C            Am     C          Am   
 Well I?m not tired, I?m coming alive
    C    C/B    Am            G     F    
 But you make up on, let?s go out tonight
 
 C C/B Am G F 
      
 C C/B Am C 
     
 C 
  
 C                            
 These things don?t matter now
        Am            F    
 We can leave it all behind
 C                      
 That?s all depending on
           Am                F   
 If you?re free to free your mind
 
      G                 Am          F  
 The crucifix still hung up by the door
      G                 Am          F 
 But Jesus doesn?t come here anymore
       G              Am             F   
 Those memories still hanging on the wall
      G                 Am              F  
 But people there don?t look like us at all
 
       C    C/B Am  G F 
 Don?t need reminding of
      C     C/B Am     C  
 The way things used to be
 
   C                  
 I race you to the top
         Am             F    
 Then we walk back down again
   C                   
 Look to the future now
              Am                  F   
 Where you?re going, where you?ve been
 
      G            Am               F  
 The universe is smaller than you think
      G                Am               F    
 So many years spent blind and then you blink
     G                Am            F  
 I promise you we're meant to suffering
      G             Am                   F  
 If you could be my queen, I?ll be your king
 
       C    C/B Am  G F 
 Don?t need reminding of
      C     C/B Am     C  
 The way things used to be

 G                   Am              F   
 Take this chance to rest your tired eyes
 G                   Am              F   
 Come with me, we?ll move to better skies
 G                    Am           F   
 If where we go don?t make a difference
      G                Am               F  
 Just turn around and we?ll come back again
 
       C    C/B Am  G F
