  F     C/G                            F       C/G   Dm/A 
      I held the book so tightly in my hands, 
  
G/C            Em                    Am         Dm             F 
I saw your picture, heard you call my name 
  
(similar) 
There was something strange, I could not look away 
I wanted to be there, I wanted to go 
  
Bb/F  Eb/G        Bb          Ab/Bb 
You gave me no warning 
  
Gm7          Eb   Bb/F  Eb 
You gave no reason 
  
Bb/D  Cm     Fmsus4        Ab 
But I was with you 
  
Bb            Eb 
Right by your side 
  
Cm                G7sus4                   Bb                Ab 
Just give me the strength, and I will help you 
  
Eb/G        Bb/F                    Fm7        Bb           Bb/C   F/C 
And they can try their hardest, cos they don't frighten me 
  
G/C                   C 
It's written in the book 
  
It's hotter than I've known before, 
but I feel so cold, and I don't know why 
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm 
Then I really believe, you could make it right 
  
Ooh the time has come now 
We must show our feelings 
But I'm looking right through you 
And your heart is empty 
Whatever happened to you it's too late to change now 
There's nowhere you can run to, no place to hide 
Please, oh please   you let me down! 
  
C        G7sus4       F/C          C 
but wait a minute, I don't understand 
  
G/A                              Am 
It's getting stronger, so grab my hand 
  
(similar) 
Don't wanna leave you, don't wanna go 
But I'm losing all control 
  
C      D/C           C       D/C     C          D/C        C 
Can't you see me? I'm slipping away 
  
Bm         Bm/A              Bm/G                      E/F# 
I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here, oh lord 
  
It's written in the book 
  
Oh so many times since I've read those words 
Just waiting to see you, can you see me? 
Tell me can you see me?
