Faces

Abmaj7 Fm9 Eb Dbmaj7 (2x)

[Verse 1]
Abmaj7                Cm
Eyes and ears open to whom I may meet
Eb                     Gm7
Questions and answers, smile and repeat
Abmaj7                  Cm
Tattoos form stories we all can endear
        Eb                        Gm
But I'd much rather hear what you love and you fear
  Abmaj7                  Cm9
A personal list caused by one little kiss
  Eb                       Gm
A tear from a loved one, a glare to a fist
Abmaj7                     Cm9
All have their endings and I've had my share
     Eb                    Gm7
It's too bad I sing to repair

[Chorus]
Abmaj7                   Fm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
              Eb            Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7                Fm9
Faces and places they go
                Eb                   Dbmaj7
Become things I write, things that I write
Eb6/Ab                  Fm9
Sometimes I feel like a ghost
                Eb                Dbmaj7
Who longs for a life, longs for a life again
    Eb6/Ab              Fm9
But then I remember the faces
                Eb                    Dbmaj7
That put out my light, the faces that lied

And then I know why

[Verse 2]
Abmaj7                      Cmadd9
An outfit that falls by the waist
               Eb
A plan in it’s place
                       Gm
My heart won it's very first race
Abmaj7                  Cmadd9
Held, but I feel out of touch
                Eb
Enough is enough
                     Gm7
Every why needs a what
                       Abmaj7
And every what needs a who, what, where, why is it
Cmadd9               Eb
I sit by quiet while lives live their lows
        Gm                            Abmaj7
And the highs are all blown by the wind
                      Cmadd9
If you sing from within
                     Eb                     Gm7
Tears roll down your chin and you feel it again

[Chorus]
Abmaj7                   Fm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
              Eb            Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7                Fm9
Faces and places they go
                Eb                   Dbmaj7
Become things I write, things that I write
Eb6/Ab                  Fm9
Sometimes I feel like a ghost
                Eb                Dbmaj7
Who longs for a life, longs for a life again
    Eb6/Ab              Fm9
But then I remember the faces
                Eb                    Dbmaj7
That put out my light, the faces that lied

And then I know why

[Outro]
Abmaj7                   Cm9
Sometimes I walk just to see
              Eb            Dbmaj7
Who passes me by, passes me by
Abmaj7                Cm9
Faces and places I've lost
           Eb              Dbmaj7
All left behind, frozen in      time
