Suitcase (Justin Hayward)
GC
% Sometimes when I'm dreaming, and I'm far away from home
The places that I've been to, trying to see them through her eyes
GEm
I kind of get the feeling, that I'm never quite alone
Like the picture from the childhood, that I thought I'd left behind
FG
See I just can't help but think about you baby
See I just can't help but think about you baby
GC
Time is of the essence, and the candle's burning low
The sunrise in the morning, and the glory that was ours
GEm
Remind me to remember, that there's not so far to go
Is captured in a moment, making love among the stars
FG
I just can't help but think about you baby
I just can't help but think about you baby

The Best Is Yet To Come (Justin Hayward)

Where did we go wrong, was it so enlightening we couldn't find our way
Where do we go now, now your heart is aching and leading you astray

% The lights are low
They say it's true

The lights are low

And the music now is slow
I'm a fool to trust in you
Seems like my self-control is slipping away
And the music now is slow
GmBbCBbC
And we ask the night, how can this be wrong, and feel so right Go %(2)
But then who are they, who are they to know, I need you so
Let me taste the love, let me drink the wine, that's yours and mine
And we ask the night, how can this be wrong, and feel so right Go &
BbAm
Did you ever look in the mirror
Did you ever wake up in the morning
Gm
And see a stranger standing there
And find that nothing, nothing was the same
Am
Did you ever drive for miles and miles
And the only thing that really matters
Gm
And wonder how on earth you got yourself there
Is the pleasure and the pain

Who Knows (Justin Hayward)
GG(addA)G
% Sometimes I find myself searching
So many miles come between us
Sometimes I find myself searching
GsusGDmCm
As I walk the streets all alone
And fate seems to keep us apart
As I walk the streets all alone
GG(addA)G
Searching the faces for someone
Fortune once brought us together
I'm searching the faces for someone
GsusGDmCmG
Someone to take me back home, back home
Is there still a place in your heart, in your heart
Someone to take me back home, back home
GmC
Who knows where the future leads us
Some day when my journey's over
# (instr.)........................
Who knows what the morning brings us
GDmG
The waters are wide the road is long
I'll come stumbling back to you my love
(instr.)...............................
The moment of truth the power of love
GmC
I pray for a hand to guide us
I know when the circle's broken
(instr.).......................
I know where the future leads me

And welcome us back where we belong Go %(2)
