[Verse 1]
G       G/F#   Em
You and I both know
         C                G
There is nothing more to say
C                     G
Chance has shut her shining eyes
    D                Am
And turned her face away

[Chorus]
C                     G
Leaning on the window sill
                   C                         G
You could write me someday and I think you will
               C            C/B      Am
We could see the sadness as a gift and still
         D7
Feel too heavy to hold

[Verse 2]
G    G/F#   Em
Snow falling
        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 so fast
                   C                 G
Thinking that this one was gonna last
          C            C/B         Am     D7
Maybe the question was too much to ask

[Verse 3]
     G         G/F#      Em
Been searching for your eyes
      C                G
All I see is blue skies
          C                G
And that old man beats his crooked cane
      D            Am
It's time to let go

[Chorus]
C                     G
Leaning on the window sill
                   C                         G
You could write me someday and I bet you will
               C            C/B      Am
We could see the sadness as a gift and still...
C               G
The seasons go fast
                   C                 G
Thinking that this one was gonna last
          C            C/B         Am    D7
Maybe the question was too much to ask

C     C/B    Am  D7

[Verse 4]
G       G/F#    Em
You and I could see
         C            G
Into the same eternity
C            G                D      Am
Every second brimming with a majesty

[Chorus]
    C                 G
Oh, kiss so sweet, so fine
                   C                   G
You could hear the music inside my mind
        C           C/B        Am
And you showed me a place I'll find
     D
Even when I'm old

[Chorus]
     C                     G
Just leaning on the window sill
                   C                         G
You could write me someday and I hope you will
               C            C/B        Am
We could see the sadness as a gift and still
C              G
The seasons go fast
                   C                G
Thinking that this one was gonna last
          C            C/B         Am     D7
Maybe the question was too much to ask
