*****************NOTE*************
One thing you will need to know is that when you see the capital "X"
that means an open stroke.  On this song that would mean the 1st three 
strings, (The high strings for you new guys), but I guess its a matter of 
personal choice.)

C            G
We close our eyes
C            G              Am                   F              C
We close our eyes and dream   and the world has turned around again

Verse 1:

F         G       C             F             C           G
When everybody is running in the big race and havin a good time

            Am             F                        G
who am i to cast a shadow? who am i? I looked death in the face

     C               F           C             G
last night I saw him in a mirror and he simply smiled he told

   Am           F          G       F    X  C
me not to worry he told me just to take my time

Chorus:

C            G     Am                  F             X C
We close our eyes    and the world has turned around again

C            G              F           G                 C
We close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone

             G     Am                  F             X C
We close our eyes    and the world has turned around again

C          G
And if you come to me

Am         F        C                 G          
And if you touch my hand I might just slip away

             Am        F
I might just disappear - Who am I?

C          G
And if you think I'm worth it  

Am         F                  C                     G
And if you think it's not too  late, we might start falling

            Am          F                 G       F  C
If we don't try to hard,   We might start falling in love

[CHORUS]

Bridge: 

G            C       G    C          G                  F
We're on the healing path we're on a roller coaster ride that could

      X    C               G      F                    C
never turn back and if you love me and if we really try  to make

G            Am             F   X   C
seconds count and we can close our eyes
