verse 1 

C 
Lying here in bed 
Em 
With things we never said 
C                       Em 
You’re always the first to sleep 
C 
I whisper my goodbye 
Em 
To all the happy lights 
Am                      G 
Wrapped around our ugly tree 

Pre-Chorus 

F 
Come sunrise 
Dm 
Your soft eyes 
C                               Em 
Will frown at my footprints in the snow 
F 
Come New Year 
     Dm 
You’ll know dear 
                  F         G 
I led you down a short line 


                     C 
And I'm so sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
The more you became my hope 
                Em      G 
The more I was made to let you go 
Am      G       F 
We lost our fight for time 
            G           C 
And I'm so sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
I’ll try not to wake the house 
                Em      G 
I wish I could stay and hold you now 
    Am     G            F 
We lost our fight for time 
Dm 
For life 
        F                       G 
And some things that never came true 
           C 
For me and you 


verse 2 

C 
December ‘85 
Em 
Grandchildren arrive 
C                       Em 
Pride can be a lovely thing 
C 
Everything I've missed 
Em 
Reminds you of that Christmas eve 
Am                      G 
When life was caving in 


Pre-Chorus 2 

F 
Come sundown 
Dm 
This small town 
C                               Em 
Looks a bit like the place we fell in love 
F 
Come New Year 
Dm 
You'll know dear 
                  F         G 
I led you down a short line 


                     C 
And I'm so sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
The more you became my hope 
                Em      G 
The more I was made to let you go 
Am      G       F 
We lost our fight for time 
            G           C 
And I'm so sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
I’ll try not to wake the house 
                Em       G 
I wish I could stay and hold you now 
    Am     G            F 
We lost our fight for time 
Dm 
For life 
        F                       G 
And some things that never came true 
           C 
For me and you 


Pre-Chorus 3 

F 
Come twilight 
Dm 
This long ride 
C                               Em 
Is moving towards the afterglow 
F 
Come New Year 
Dm 
You'll be here 
                  F         G 
With me on the short line 


                     C 
And I'm still sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
The more you became my hope 
                Em      G 
The more I was made to let you go 
Am      G       F 
We lost our fight for time 
            G           C 
And I'm so sorry Caroline 
                G       F 
I’ll try not to wake the house 
                Em       G 
I wish I could stay and hold you now 
    Am     G            F 
We lost our fight for time 
Dm 
For life 
        F                       G 
And some things that never came true 
           C 
For me and you
