Verse 1
CmI Still Leave The Hallway Light On
Though There's No OA#ne CoD#ming Home
Some Nights I HA#ear The Old Floor Creaking
And Forget TCmhat I'm Alone

Verse 2
Your Coffee CG#up Is In The Cupboard
Where I Left It YD#ears Ago
Funny How The SmA#allest Things
Are The Hardest Things To Let CmGo

Verse 3
I Thought The YG#ears Would Teach Me Fm7​
How To Carry D#On Somehow
But Time Can ChA#ange A Thousand Things
It Hasn't ChG#anged You Now

Chorus
I've Known Other HD#ands,
I've Walked Other RA#oads
I've Watched The CmSeasons Come And G#Go
I Told MD#yself That I Was Finally FrA#ee
That The PCmast Was Where It Ought To G#Be
But SomewhD#ere Underneath These YeA#ars
Your CmMemory Still Lives G#Here
Now I KD#now What I Could Never PrA#ove
No One EG#ver Came CA#lose To YoD#u
Nothing CoA#uld ReplCmace You   G#  Nothing Ever WiD#ll  A#​
I've Spent A Fm7Lifetime MA#oving OG#n
And Somehow LA#ove Stood StD#ill

Verse 4
I ReCmmember Sunday Mornings
Rain Against TD#he Window Glass
You Would HA#um Beside The Fire
While The Whole World WCmandered Past

Verse 5
There Was Nothing ExtG#raordinary
In The Way You SD#aid My Name
But I Would Give ThA#is Life I've Lived
To Hear It Just Once ACmgain

Verse 6
The PhotogrG#aph Is Fading
But Your Eyes Are SD#till The Same
And Every RA#oad I Travelled
Somehow Led Me BCmack Again

Verse 7
A#I Used To Call It WeG#akness
To Remember What D#Was Gone
Now I Think Perhaps SA#ome Memories
Are Simply Meant To Carry G#On

Chorus
I've Known Other D#Hands,
I've Walked Other RoA#ads
I've Seen The CCmities No One KnG#ows
I Built A LD#ife And Learned To SmA#ile
I Thought I'd Buried You ACmfter All This WG#hile
But When TD#he Evening Settles DA#own
And Silence FCmills This Empty HG#ouse
There Is One TD#ruth I Can't UnA#do
No One EG#ver ReplA#aced YoD#u
A#Nothing Could Replace YoCmu  G#​
Nothing Ever WD#ill  A#​
I've Spent A Fm7Lifetime A#Moving OG#n
And SomeFm7how LA#ove Stood StD#ill

Verse 8
D#My Hair Has Turned To Silver
The CmYears Have Left Their Mark
I've LG#earned That Growing Older
Doesn't MD#ake The Distance Dark

Verse 9
A#I've ForgivD#en What I Couldn't   A#​
I've AccCmepted What I Lost
Some ThG#ings Are Not Forgotten
No Matter What They CA#ost

Verse 10
I Don't Need You To ReD#turn Now
I Don't NA#eed Another ChaCmnce
I Finally Stopped PG#retending
That EA#very Love Can Be ReplD#aced

Bridge
Maybe LoA#ve Was Never MeCmant
To Disappear CompleteG#ly
Maybe Some HeD#arts Leave A Mark
That TA#ime Cannot DefeCmat
And If I Could Go Back TG#here
I Wouldn't AD#sk You To StA#7ay
I'd Only TFm7ell You What I CoG#uldn't
When You WA#alked AwaA#7y
You Were The One I Didn't KFmnow
Fm7I Would Spend My Life RememA#bering

Chorus
I've Known Other HD#ands
I've Walked Other RoA#ads
I've Watched This OCmld World Change And GrG#ow
And I Don't RegD#ret The Life I've LiveA#7d
Or All The ThG#ings The Years Have GA#iven
But Standing HD#ere Beneath This Morning SA#ky
I Finally UCmnderstand Why G#​
Some LoD#ves Don't Need Another DaA#y
To Prove They G#Never WA#ent Away  D#​
NotA#hing Could ReplCmace You
And I Don't Need It TG#o
I Finally Made My PD#eace With That   A#​
And I Can Say It ND#ow

Outro
ID# Loved You I Lost You
I CA#arried You This FCmar
And AG#fter All These YearA#s
I Know Exactly What You D#Are   A#​
The One LG#ove No OA#ne Could ReplaD#ce
The House Is Quiet Now The Morning LCmight Is New
I Close The DG#oor Behind Me A#   And I Don't Look BD#ack
A#Nothing Could Replace YoD#u
