Bb a while ago, I heard the sound of children’s laughter
Now it’s Gm quiet, so I guess they left the park
Cm This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour
The F sun is going down, it’s getting Bb dark F

I Bb realise I’m cold, the F/A rain begins to pour
As I Bb watch the windows on the second Gm floor
Eb The lights are on, it’s time to go (ooh Gm/D ooh F ooh)
It’s time at last to let him Eb/G know

Instr Cm F

I be-Cm lieve it would be fair to say F
You look be-Bb wildered Gm
And you Cm wonder why I’m here today G#
And Eb/G so you should, I Bb would
When I Eb left, I felt I’d had enough Bb/D
But in the shape and Cm form I ap-Cm/Bb pear now
I have G# learned to cope and Eb/G love and hope
is G# why I am Bb here now G7/B

C And now you see another me, I’ve been reloaded, yeah
Am I’m fired up, don’t shut me down
Dm I’m like a dream within a dream that’s been decoded
I’m G fired up, I’m hot, don’t shut me C down G

I’m C not the one you knew
I’m G/B now and then combined
And I’m Am asking you to have an open F mind
(and I C/E won’t be the F same)
I’m not the same this time around (ooh C/E ooh G ooh)
I’m fired up, don’t shut me F/A down

Inter Dm G

Will you Dm leave me standing in the hall G
Or let me C enter? Am
The a-Dm partment hasn’t changed at all Bb
I F/A got to say I’m C glad

Once these F rooms were witness to our love C/E
My tantrums and in-Dm creasing frus-F/C tration
But I Bb go from mad
To F/A not so bad in Bb my transfor-C mation A7/C#

D And now you see another me, I’ve been reloaded, yeah
Bm I’m fired up, don’t shut me down
Em I’m like a dream within a dream that’s been decoded
I’m A fired up, I’m hot, don’t shut me D down A

I’m D not the one you knew
I’m A/E now and then combined
And I’m Bm asking you to have an open G mind
(And D/F# I won’t be the G same)
I’m not the same this time around (ooh D/F# ooh A ooh)
I’m fired up, don’t shut me G/B down

You D asked me not to leave
Well A here I am again
And I D/F# love you still and so I won’t pre-Bm tend
I have G learned to cope
And D/F# love and hope is G why I am A here now
