Do you ever get the feeling that you're living someone else's life?
B
and all the time you thought that you were happy and didn't think twice
E
The winter that we spent together got so cold I thought we'd die
B A
and the dress you wore at Easter that made me cry
[Chorus]:

G#m A E
two saints walking arm in arm
G#m A E B A
I'll meet you at the world's end, two saints walking arm in arm
E
young again
E
The smoke from burning bridges has been stinging in our eyes for years
B
so we never learn to see the good that stares us in the face
E
with the sound of false alarm bells still ringing in our ears
B A
so all the time we never knew, there is no better place
[Chorus]
[Bridge] :
G E
So we share a secret place
G E
I never knew it meant that much to you
G^ E
A place where we begin and end
B B A
see, I never knew, I never knew
[Chorus]
