F#m C#m A C#m F#m C#m A
C#m F#m C#m A
 
[Verse 1]
C#m                         F#m
Thursday afternoon you cast a shadow 'round my room
    C#m                           F#m                        C#m F#m7
The breeze moved the curtains and lifted my perfume into the air
    C#m                       F#m7
And danced with lazy curls in your hair
    C#m                     F#m7
The sun was in the sky like pink champagne,
       C#m                        F#m C#m
And it glistened in your eyes all day
 
[Chorus]
A             C#m7      F#m7
I, I remember you put a chill across my face
         C#m
Like the air of December
  A                           C#m7
I swear I remember it that way
  F#m7                        C#m
I swear I remember it that way
  A                 F#
I swear I remember it
F#
Where are you now?
F#
Where are you now?
F#
Where are you?
 
[Verse 2]
    C#m
You stood by the lake,
F#m                      C#m    F#m
I wanted to take you for granted
    C#m                 F#m
The grass was thin and high,
    C#m            F#m                  C#m
The water mirrored tiny sparkles to the sky
 
[Chorus]
A             C#m7      F#m7
I, I remember you put a chill across my face
         C#m
Like the air of December
  A                           C#m7
I swear I remember it that way
  F#m7                         C#m
I swear I remember it that way
  A                 F# F#sus4
I swear I remember it
              F#
Where are you now?
F#
Where are you now?
F#
Where are you
A
Now?

[Verse 3]
       C#m7                   F#m7
In the by-myself mornings the birds windchime
    C#m                       F#m                   C#m7
The treelimbs crackle and the sunshine climb up the sky
F#m7 C#m                 F#m7                       C#m
Like pink champagne that glistened in your eyes all day
    F#m                      C#m
The sparkle in your eyes all day
    F#m              C#m F#m C#m
The swinkle in your eyes all day
 
[Chorus]
A          C#m7      F#m
I remember you put a chill across my face like the
