Separate Lives

The Alan Parsons Project - Separate Lives
Track #2, Vulture Culture


It’s [Asus2]been a [Asus4]long [A]road
We’ve [Asus2]walked the [Asus4]last [A]mile
We [Asus2]reach the [Asus4]same con[A]clusion
And we [G]stop for a while

To[Asus2]gether [Asus4]we [A]know
The [Asus2]way we [Asus4]must [A]go
We’re [Asus2]leaving [Asus4]an il[A]lusion
That’s for [G]us to share
Only for [A]us to share

We [D+9]live our separate lives
And [Bm]go our different ways
Cause we [Em]don’t see eye to eye
And we [A7]can’t stand face to face

We [D+9]live our separate lives
While [Bm]counting all the days
Till the [Em]two of us arrive
In a[A7]nother time and place

We [Asus2]share the [Asus4]same [A]thoughts
We [Asus2]read the [Asus4]same [A]lines
We [Asus2]meet on [Asus4]sad oc[A]casions
And in [G]happier times

A [Asus2]spoken [Asus4]good[A]bye
And [Asus2]both of [Asus4]us [A]try
To [Asus2]walk a[Asus4]way in [A]silence
That’s for [G]us to share,
Only for [A]us to share

We [D+9]live our separate lives
And [Bm]go our different ways
Cause we [Em]don’t see eye to eye
And we [A7]can’t stand face to face

We [D+9]live our separate lives
While [Bm]counting all the days
Till the [Em]two of us arrive
In a[A7]nother time and place

And [Asus2]always [Asus4]good[A]bye
But [Asus2]heaven [Asus4]knows [A]why
I [Asus2]can’t e[Asus4]rase the [A]memory
That’s for [G]us to share
Only for [A]us to share
Only for [G]us to share
Only for [A]us to share

We [D+9]live our separate lives
And [Bm]go our different ways
Cause we [Em]don’t see eye to eye
And we [A7]can’t stand face to face

We [D+9]live our separate lives
While [Bm]counting all the days
Till the [Em]two of us arrive
In a[A7]nother time and place
