Intro: A minorAm Am7Am7+ Am7Am7 Am6Am6 Am7Am7 Am7+ A minorAm E7/9-

     A minorAm        Am7Am7+     Am7Am7      Am6Am6
I've been so many places in my life and time
    C majorC                          Fm5-/7
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
      FF           E minor 7Em7                Dm7Dm7         E minor 7Em7
I've acted out my life in stages, with ten thousand people watching
        Dm7Dm7      E minor 7Em7    FF              C majorC  E7E7
But we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you
     A minorAm      Am7Am7+      Am7Am7      Am6Am6
I  know your image of me is what I hope to be
    C majorC                   Fm5-/7
I've treated you unkindly but baby can't you see
       FF                    E minor 7Em7   Dm7Dm7             E minor 7Em7
There's no one more important to me, baby can't you please see through me,
Dm7Dm7         E minor 7Em7             FF            C majorC      E7E7
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you.
     Am7Am7           E7E7           C majorC        F#m5-/7
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin'
      FF        G6G6           C majorC
You came out in front and I was hiding
     E minor 7Em7     Am7Am7   E7E7      C majorC                   F#m5-/7
But now I'm so much better, and if my words don't come together
            FF     E minor 7Em7  Dm7Dm7    G7G7
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there, hiding
  A minorAm           Am7Am7+         Am7Am7        Am6Am6
I   love you in a place where there's no space or time;
   C majorC          F#m5-/7
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine,
     FF       E minor 7Em7        Dm7Dm7            E minor 7Em7
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
    Dm7Dm7   E minor 7Em7        FF        C majorC      E7E7
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you.
     Am7Am7           E7E7           C majorC        F#m5-/7
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin'
      FF        G6G6           C majorC
You came out in front and I was hiding
     E minor 7Em7     Am7Am7   E7E7      C majorC                   F#m5-/7
But now I'm so much better, and if my words don't come together
            FF     E minor 7Em7  Dm7Dm7    G7G7
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there, hiding
