Ataris

Dm-F-Am-B-Gm (2x)

   Dm     F      Am
1. You're a senior double major
   B       Gm
   You got such big ideas
   Dm        F     Am
   We were searching for a savior
   B                     Gm
   To guide us through those restless years

   F
R: If only I could steal you away
   Am
   From those paths we were led astray
   Dm
   I would take back all those things I said
   B
   That new year's day
   F
   If only I could make you see
   Am
   That all those dreams belonged to me
   Dm
   I'd take back all those things I said
   B
   That new year's day

   Dm      F      Am
2. The October autumn twilight
   B           Gm
   The chilling of our breath
   Dm          F       Am
   I had dreams I've found redemption
   B             Gm
   And a past full of regret
   Dm        F     Am
   And the clouds on the horizon
   B             Gm
   Look like a thousand paper cranes
   Dm         F
   And I heard your voice
   Am                   B  Gm
   But couldn't scream your name

R: If only I could steal you away...

   Dm                     C
*: So let's drink to forgiveness
   B
   Let's drink for regret
   B
   Let's drink to the ones we've loved and lost
   Dm
   Let us never forget
   C                        B
   The mannequin shields her glowing eyes
   B
   We'll all too human, yeah
   Dm-F-Am
   We're always searching on
   B         Gm              Dm-F-Am--B--Gm
   Until that gift of isolation has been won

   F
   If only I could steal you away
   Am
   From those paths we were led astray
   Dm
   I would take back all those things I said
   B
   That new year's day
   F
   If only I could make you see
   Am
   That all those dreams belonged to me
   Dm
   A hearting built now way
   B
   you're new you're till meek
   F
   If only I could steal you away
   Am
   From those paths we were led astray
   Dm
   I would take back all those things I said
   B                             Dm-F-Am--B--Gm
   That new year's day that new year's day
