Chords with lyrics
Capo: III
Verse:
G+G E minorEm
I sent you down to the sinking shore
C majorC G+G
In search of pretty things that would take your heart to war
G+G E minorEm
You weren’t in love with me, so what else could I do?
C majorC G+G
If one of us were happy, it might as well be you
Chorus:
C majorC E minorEm
And I saw you sail into time
C majorC E minorEm
As I watched her take what was mine
C majorC
But she deserved it more than I, for that you have every right
E minorEm G+G
To hold her heart in place of mine
C majorC
But I’ll stay here on standby until it is you realize
E minorEm G+G
That you’re the only one that I would sing to
C majorC E minorEm
You’re the only one I’d sing to
Verse 2:
G+G E minorEm
I gave away the right of my beating heart to you
C majorC G+G
And the signs of her existence lied within every bruise
G+G E minorEm
But I would never blame you for the lies she told herself
C majorC G+G
After all they’re only feelings and we’ve no choice in how they’re dealt
Chorus:
C majorC E minorEm
And I saw you sail into time
C majorC E minorEm
As I watched her take what was mine
C majorC
But she deserved it more than I, for that you have every right
E minorEm G+G
To hold her heart in place of mine
C majorC
But I’ll stay here on standby until it is you realize
E minorEm G+G
That you’re the only one that I would sing to
C majorC E minorEm
You’re the only one I’d sing to
C majorC E minorEm G+G
You’re the only one I’d sing to
C majorC E minorEm
You’re the only one I’d sing to
