Empty Spaces Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Am]
[F][Am]
Once there were times, [Em]love when we could

[Verse 1]
[F]
touch the [Am]air between
And out across [Em]this room we'd fill
the [F]space with all our skins
[Am]And if we just touch[Em] hands,
[F]life [G]would shine with electric [F]dreams
[G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]
No matter how many [Em]miles,
nothing hurt [F]long distance hearts
[Am]And there was al w[Em]ays something there[F]
that space could never keep apart
[Am]But now I know insid[Em]e
that something's [F]died
[G]When we're apart,

[Verse 3]
[F]
all we have are empty spaces
[C][Em][Am][Em][C][Bb]

[Verse 4]
[Am]It's not like we're building w[Em]alls,
[F]too hard to climb to make us blind
[Am]It's just so much numb[Em]ing space to
[F]hollow out the heart and mind
[Am]And I can [Em]hear echoes of ghosts of[F] love,
[G]we left behin[F]d[G]

[Verse 5]
[Am]I'll always love April[Em],
we [F]fell in love and we planted seeds
[Am]And now we walk thro[Em]ugh fallen trees[F]
and leaves are crushed [Am]beneath
And I will [Em]al ways live in a[F]utumn
[G]Now we're agreed,

[Verse 6]
[F]
all we have are empty spaces
[C][Em][Am][C][Bb]

[Verse 7]
[G]I thought this was meant to be
[Am]our love had an energy
[G]But only as time evo[Am]lved and all
of our strength dissolved
And we'll [Dm]never feel the flame
that burned [F]so naked again

[Verse 8]
[G]I w[Am]alk through Kentish Town [Em]and all th[Am]e rain,
rain pouring down
So many people [Em]here but [F]space
like this I've never [Am]found
And as I get back home and step [F]in [G]side

[Verse 9]
I [F]realize, all I have,
all I [C]have are empty [Em]spaces
[Am][Em][C][Bb]
