Intro

Dm-F-Am--Bb--Gm (x2)

Verse 1

You're a senior double major

You got such big ideas

We were searching for a savior

To guide us through those restless years

Chorus

If only I could steal you away

From those paths we were led astray

I would take back all those things I said

That new year's day

If only I could make you see

That all those dreams belonged to me

I'd take back all those things I said

That new year's day

Verse 2

The October autumn twilight

The chilling of our breath

I had dreams I've found redemption

And a past full of regret

And the clouds on the horizon

Look like a thousand paper cranes

And I heard your voice

But couldn't scream your name

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

So let's drink to forgiveness

Let's drink for regret

Let's drink to the ones we've loved and lost

Let us never forget

The mannequin shields her glowing eyes

We'll all too human, yeah

We're always searching on

Bb Gm Dm-F-Am--Bb--Gm

Until that gift of isolation has been won

Outro

If only I could steal you away

From those paths we were led astray

I would take back all those things I said

That new year's day

If only I could make you see

That all those dreams belonged to me

A hearting built now way

you're new you're till meek

If only I could steal you away

From those paths we were led astray

I would take back all those things I said

Bb Dm-F-Am--Bb--Gm

That new year's day that new year's day
