      Am
Every face
Fb      G            Am
Even the one you saw yesterday
Fb        G         Am
It looks different today
Fb                  G               Am
Cause everything's changed since yesterday
   Fb     G        Am
In every possible way
Fb           G         Am
Things seem different today
Fb        G
Not like yesterday

Fb Am  G  Fb
Is consideration
Am   G    Fb
More like an exception
   Am G  Fb
Of consideration?

Am       C                 G    Fm       G (one stab on transition to Am)
You held the world in your arms tonight
Am                       C        G            Fm G
And what if you held the world in your arms?

Am                            Fb    G        Am
When you're secure do you feel much safer?
                               Fb          G
But days never change and it's three years later
Am
It's like your life
Fb     G                Am
Hasn't changed and it's three years late
Fb          G          Am
How does it feel to be three years late?
    Fb             G           Am
And watching your youth drift away
F          G                Am
What seems different, seems different today?
F          G                Am                Fb       G
What seems different, seems different today?
