G D Am Em
I can see you now by the light of the dawn,
C G Dsus4 D
And the sun is rising slow,
G D Am Em
We have talked all night, and I can't talk anymore,
C D G
But I must stay and you must go;

G D Am Em
You have always been such a good friend to me,
C G Dsus4 D
Through the thunder and the rain,
G D Am Em
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
C D G
Lift your heart and think of me;
Em B
There are those who fail, there are those who fall,
C G Dsus4 D
There are those who will never win,
G D Am Em
Then there are those who fight for the things they believe,
C D G
And these are men like you and me;
G D Am Em
In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore,
C G Dsus4 D
Leaving footprints by the sea,
G D Am Em
And when there was just one set of prints in the sand,
C D G
That was when you carried me;
G D Am Em
You have always been such a good friend to me,
C G Dsus4 D
Through the thunder and the rain,
G D Am Em
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
C D G
Lift your heart and think of me;
G D Am Em
When you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,
C D G
Lift your heart and think of me,
C D G
Lift your heart and think of me.
