Dm A# I had nine lives but I lost all of them F And Iʼve been searching in the night A And Iʼve been searching in the rain Dm I tried to find them A# But they disappeared F They walked away, they dressed in black A They left my side and all I say Dm Is that I wasted time A# When I looked for them F A For now, I know that things gone past Dm Are never to be found again A# F No never never again A I had nine lives Dm But lost all of them Dm A# F A x2 Dm I had a plan A# But never finished it F And Iʼve been searching for the thought A And Iʼve been searching in a haze Dm I try all days A# To remember it F But now the blueprint in my mind has gone A Dm My mind forgot the colour of direction A# And my eyes they see the hands F That could have built A That could have constructed Dm The empire in my mind A# The empire F Iʼll never find A I had a plan Dm But that was where it ended (Ended)
