Richie Sambora - Seven Years Gone

richie sambora – seven years gone
music & lyrics : richie sambora & luke ebbin

( capo at the 1st fret )

intro : D7

verse 1 :
G
another change of season
D
slipping through my life
G
i can’t recall believing
D
that i’d make it here alive

verse 2 :
G
steady wind is blowing
D
the clouds don’t look the same
A G
you can’t deny a thunder
G A
when you’re living through the rain

chorus :
Bm G
like the moth dances with the light
D A
sometimes a shadow burns too bright
Bm G
shattered silence in the night
D A
you wake up , move on
Bm G
the 7 years gone
D A
7 years gone

verse 3 :
G
hung up cold and reeling
D
wounded deep inside
G
can’t find a road to heal in
D
when you’re blinded by your pride

verse 4 :
G
the hourglass is broken
D
sand is slipping through your hands
A G
by your chasing what’s been storing
G A
changes making , making other plans

chorus :
Bm G
like the moth dances with the light
D A
sometimes a shadow burns too bright
Bm G
shattered silence in the night
D A
you wake up , move on
Bm G
the 7 years gone
D A
7 years gone

times are changed , times that went too fast
tearing moments from the past
while today’s singing yesterday’s songs
you wake up , move on
the 7 years gone

interlude : ( riff : B5 C#5 E5 C#5 B5
C#5 B5 C#5 )
time , time ,
time , time ticking ,
time , time ticking away
that’s life
it’s all about living
taking it day by day
blind , blind , leave it behind
singing a different song
one day , you’re waking up
you’re seven years
seven years gone

chorus :
like the moth dances with the light
sometimes a shadow that burns too bright
shattered silence in the night
you wake up , move on

times have changed , times that were to last
tearing moments from the past
while today’s singing yesterday’s songs
growing up , holding on
the 7 years gone

7 years gone
7 years gone
7 years gone
