D                G
Up in the window looking in
  Bm             A
I saw you with a violin
        D                  G
And you played a tune your wrote yourself
     Bm                A
When you were still in middle school

        F#m                    Bm             Em
And you looked like a portrait of someone who cared
        F#m                    Bm             Em   A7
And you looked like a portrait of someone who dared

D                 G
I'm not afraid of what I did
  Bm            A
I only tried to be myself
       D               G
When I looked at you I thought the same
    Bm              A
But you were always someone else

           F#m                    Bm             Em
Though you looked like a portrait of someone who cared
        F#m             Bm             Em   A7
And you looked portrait of someone who dared

D G Bm A
D G Bm A

    Em            F#m                                Bm
And hours pass so many times, you thought that I was blind
    Em            F#m                                Bm
And hours pass so many times, you thought that I was blind
    Em            Bm                                 A            
And hours pass so many times, you thought that I was blind
    Em            Bm           A    A7
And hours pass so many times before

D                G
Up in the window looking in
  Bm             A
I saw you with a violin
        D                  G
And you played a tune your wrote yourself
     Bm                A
When you were still in middle school

        F#m                    Bm             Em
And you looked like a portrait of someone who cared
        F#m                    Bm             Em
And you looked like a portrait of someone who dared
        F#m                    Bm             Em   A7  D (hold)
And you looked like a portrait of someone who dared
