that plays in the background. . . can anyone help?

Each chord has 4 beats per measure
A G#m (3x)then A B

E F#m E F#m
Someday, when my life has passed me by,
E
I'll lay around and wonder
F#m E
Why you were always there for me.
[Verse 2]
E F#m E F#m
One way, in the eyes of a passer by,
E F#m
I'll look around for another try,
E
And I'll fade away.
[Chorus]
A G#m
Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
A G#m
This place is warm, without a care
A G#m
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
A B
I go to leave but you reach for me
[Verse 3]
E F#m E F#m
Some say, better things will come our way
E
No matter what they try to say
F#m E
You were always there for me
[Verse 4]
E F#m E F#m
Someway, when the sun begins to shine
E F#m
I hear a song from another time
E
and I'll fade away.
