    G          C      D          G
As time passes by, direction unknown
G               C       D          G
You've left us now but we're not alone
G            C           D         G
Before you know it your cups overflown
G             C          D           G
You measured no one that I've ever known

Chorus:
          C    D  G
And it's quite alright
         C   D   Em
And goodbye for now
          C
Just look up to the stars
       D
And believe who you are
            Em   D  C
Cause it's quite alright
        C     D   G
And so long, goodbye

We always knew that it'd come to this
It's times like these I forget what I miss
Matters of heart are hard to address
Especially when yours is full of emptiness

Chorus

Time passes by, direction unknown
You've left us now, but we're not alone
Before you know it, your cup's overflown
But you measure no one that I've ever known

Chorus
