Intro: C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A FF G+G
C majorC
All of these grateful looks
C/AC/A
All these grateful eyes
FF G+G
All the furious stares and the fretful sighs
C majorC
Promising everything
C/AC/A
To everyone
FF
We'll be back soon
G+G
You're my favorite one
C majorC
And I'll keep it quiet
C/AC/A
I'll hold you dear
FF G+G
Your whisperin fills the ear
C majorC
Tell me you'll stay
C/AC/A
We would have such fun
FF G+G
And a lie, you don't need anyone
FF G+G
And the screams, the wails, and the call
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
The headiness of the Fall
FF G+G
Ten-thousand miles from where we began
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
I fell asleep with a picture in hand
FF G+G C majorC
It was all for a woman
C majorC C/AC/A
You say that you're grateful for the time alone
FF G+G
Two years away and I don't miss home
C majorC C/AC/A
And everyone asks you if you still think of her
FF G+G
So you smile politely and you demur
C majorC C/AC/A
But then all at once your head starts to swell
FF G+G
And you can feel her breath on your skin
C majorC C/AC/A
If I let you stay, the same spot today
FF G+G
She's above you, below you in ways
FF
And you're shiverin cold
G+G
Like you're just 10 years old
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
And she's lying asleep in your bed
FF
And you're standing beside her
G+G
The light from inside her
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
Filling up the darkness in your head
FF G+G C majorC
It was all for a woman
FF
And you've drowned in the teasing
G+G
You've forgotten the reason
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
The muse inspired the art
FF
You'd give anything for
G+G
Her to say them once more
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
The words you believed at the start
FF G+G
Ten-thousand miles from where it began
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
Falling asleep with a picture in hand
FF G+G
And it was all... it was all
C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A
For the look in her eyes
FF G+G C majorC
Of the promise of the light of a woman
