Capo: 2nd fret (I've seen him place the  
Capo on the 4th or 5th fret, place it  
wherever you're comfortable) 


G I remember a conversation, Em at a restaurant 
C With a friend of mine, he?d a successful mind 
G And he told me of his D life 
G And the plans he?d made to come this far 
Em Had gone so well and now we're all so proud of C him 
And he told me how 
But I G couldn?t bear to D listen 

(G) Cause all my life I've heard 
Of the (Em) dreams of the organized 
To be the C best in the company 
To win the G awards but that?s not me D 
Cause G all my life all I ever Em wanted 
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence 

G All my life, Em all my life 
C Was a love that lasted longer than the G silence 

G I had to say that I had to leave 
Cause Em it was on my mind 
That all he C set in me were insecurities 
But that G dream was never mine D 
Cause the plans G I thought I?d made so far 
Had gone Em alright but all that I feel now is doubt C 
And he told me why 
But I G couldn?t bear to listen D 

G Cause all my life I've heard 
Of the dreams Em of the organized 
To be the C best in the company 
To win the G awards but that?s not me D 
Cause G all my life all I ever Em wanted 
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence 

G All my life, Emall my life 
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence
