A Song For You chords by Leon Russell

(Starts with descending cascade in Dm (Harmonic Minor) 4 measures)

A7
   I`ve been so many places in my life and time,
G7
   I`ve sung a lot of songs,   I`ve made some bad rhyme,
     Am7
I`ve acted out my love in stages, with ten thousand people watching,
F
   but we`re alone now, and I`m singing this song to you.

A7
I know your image of me is what I hope to be,
G7
   I treated you unkindly,  but darlin`  can`t you see,
        Am7
There`s no one more important to me,  darlin` can`t you please see through me,
F

   Cus we`re alone now and I`m singing this song to you.

G
You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing,
F/E
   You came out in front and I was hiding,
    G
But now I`m so much better, and if my words don`t come together,
C7
    Listen to the melody, cause my love`s in there hiding.
