nd Fret G C Looking at the rain - feeling the pain F G C Of love lost running though - my brain G C Looking at the wind - watching it spin F G C The leaves along the street - you win Am Em Waiting for a line to fall Am Em Dm Telling you it's all a - big mistake G C Looking at a face - so out of place F G C Inside that picture frame - of lace G C Looking at the wall - wishing you'd call F G C And tell me you're okay - that's all Am Em Wishing this was all a dream Am Em Dm And I'd find you sleeping when I wake G C Looking at the trees - so ill at ease F G C From sleep that will not come - that's me G C Looking at the dawn - knowing it's wrong F G C Still thinking of your love - that's gone Am Em Wishing this was all a dream Am Em Dm And I'd find you sleeping when I wake G C Looking at the door - walking the floor F G C And wondering where you are - once more G C Looking at the sky - wondering why F G C I'd let you slip away - I cry Am Em Wishing this was all a dream Am Em Dm And I'd find you sleeping when I wake G C Looking at the rain - feeling the pain F G C Of love lost running though - my brain G C Looking at the wind - watching it spin F G C The leaves along the street - you win Am Em Waiting for a line to fall Am Em Dm Telling you it's all a big mistake NC C But the words won't come F G I know I'd - feel the same C Looking at the rain
