Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you’ve seen

Am F
And when I think of all the places I just don’t belong
C F G
I’ve come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

This peace on earth’s not right (with my back against the wall)

No pain or sign of time (I’m much too young to fall)

So out of place don’t wanna stay, I feel wrong and that’s my sign
G
I’ve made up my mind

Loved ones back home all crying ’cause they’re already missing me
Am F Dm
I pray by the grace of God that there’s somebody listening
Am F Dm
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be

Avenged Sevenfold - Seize The Day

Dm               F                  G
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
C              Bbes
It’s empty and cold without you here,
C              Dm
too many people to ache over

(F5 F#5 Gm)       C                                F
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
Em               Dm
But I’m too young to worry
Gm                       C                            F
These streets we travel on, will undergo our same lost past

Dm              Gm                          F
I found you here, now please just stay for a while
C                  Dm
I can move on with you around
Gm           F                C
I hand you, my mortal life- but will it be forever?
Dm      Gm             F                  C
I’d do- anything for a smile, holding you ’til our time is done
Dm            Gm                     F               C
We both know- the day will come but, I don’t want to leave you

(F5 F#5 Gm)       C                                F
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
Em               Dm
But I’m too young to worry
Bbes
(a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Reff :
Dm               F                  G
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
C              Bbes
It’s empty and cold without you here,
C              Dm
too many people to ache over

Dm           Gm                               F
Newborn life, replacing life, replacing all of us,
C                Dm
changing this fable we live in
Gm             F               C
No longer, needed here so where should we go?

Dm       Gm                     F
Will you, take a journey tonight,
C                 Dm
follow me past the walls of death?
Gm               F          C
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

Reff :
Dm               F                  G
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
C              Bbes
It’s empty and cold without you here,
C              Dm
too many people to ache over
Dm              F                   G
Trails in life, questions of us existing here,
C           Bbes
don’t wanna die alone without you here
C               F
Please tell me what we have is real

Chorus : C Dm Bbes
F C Dm Bbes (2x)
F                     C       Dm                  Bbes
So, what if I never hold you, or kiss you lips again?
F                 C                 Bes
I never want to leave you and the memories for us to see

I beg don’t leave me

Chorus : Gm F A Bbes (2x)

Gm           F           A                 Bbes
(Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day)
Gm F    A     Bbes
I stand here alone
Gm       F                Gm                 Bbes
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home
