That's the Way It Seems to Me

E                   A           E
Does the sun take forever to go down?
                    B7
Is each night eternity?
E              A               E
Is the morning bell a mournful sound?
                  B7       E
That's the way it seems to me.


                           E7
That's the way it seems to me these days,
A                                 E - B7
Nothing feels the same as you can see.
E                         A              E
Ever since we came to the parting of the ways,
                  B7       E
That's the way it seems to me.

There is no change in the mighty ocean deep.
There is no change in the sea.
We should make no promise we can't keep,
That's the way it seems to me.

That's the way it seems to me these days,
Nothing feels the same as you can see.
Ever since we came to the parting of the ways,
That's the way it seems to me.

Yes, I dream of the wonders that we had
Till you wanted to be free.
Still it took two to make it all turn bad,
That's the way it seems to me.

That's the way it seems to me these days,
Nothing feels the same as you can see.
Ever since we came to the parting of the ways,
That's the way it seems to me.

Can't you hear that bird out in the cold
Singin' so mournfully?
Sounds like someone afeared of growing old,
That's the way it seems to me.

That's the way it seems to me these days,
Nothing feels the same as you can see.
Ever since we came to the parting of the ways,
That's the way it seems to me.

Oh, that's the way it seems to me these days,
Nothing feels the same as you can see.
Ever since we came to the parting of the ways,
That's the way it seems to me.
That's the way it seems to me.
