[Intro]
F#maj7/G#    F#maj7    C#/F
D#m7         G#7      A#m7   (A7)
 
F#maj7/G#    F#maj7    C#/F
D#m7         G#7      A#m7   (A7)
 
 
[Verse 1]
             F#maj7/G#  F#maj7       C#/F
He came from somewhere back in her long ago
D#m7      G#7         A#m7       (A7)
     The sentimental fool don't see
       F#maj7/G#     F#maj7
Tryin' hard to recreate
         C#/F
What had yet to be created
 
D#m7   G#7         A#m7
      once in her life
    (A7)       F#maj7/G#
She musters a smile
 
F#maj7      C#/F
for his nostalgic tale
D#m7 G#7          A#m7         (A7)      F#maj7/G#
    Never coming near what he wanted to say
F#maj7         C#/F
      Only to realize
D#m7   G#7            A#m7
      it never really was
 
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m7                   F#/G#
She had a place in his life
A#m7                      F#/G#
He never made her think twice
      D#m7  G#7    C#maj7
As he rises to her apology
(B7 A#m7) D#m7       G#7    A#m7
  Anybody else would surely know
                  A#m6
He's watching her go
 
[Chorus]
                F#m7         A/B
But what a fool believes, he sees
                    E               C#m7    (A7)
No wise man has the power to reason away
     F#m7      A/B
What seems to be
                      E
Is always better than nothing
                C#m7
Than nothing at all
 
[Verse 2]
      (A7)        F#maj7/G#  F#maj7       C#/F
Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago
D#m7         G#7             A#m7           (A7)         F#maj7/G#
       Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
F#maj7       C#/F
Someday, somewhere
D#m7     G#7      A#m7
         She will return
 
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m7                   F#/G#
She had a place in his life
A#m7                    F#/G#
He never made her think twice
      D#m7  G#7    C#maj7
As he rises to her apology
(B7 A#m7) D#m7       G#7    A#m7
  Anybody else would surely know
                  A#m6
He's watching her go
 
[Chorus]
                F#m7         A/B
But what a fool believes, he sees
                    E               C#m7     (A7)
No wise man has the power to reason away
     F#m7      A/B
What seems to be
                      E
Is always better than nothing
                C#m7               (A7)
Than nothing at all
