Capo II

E   A  x2


    E    A        E
No great auspicious day,
E             A
I been here so many times,
F#m
I wasn?t sure I'd stay.
        A         E
I felt shy and stressed,
    F#m              E       A       E
was a man to my left, waiting.
E            A         E
It struck me, the way I saw him
E            A        F#m
a familiarity almost haunting.
   A         E
He was saying his name,
F#m
I could hardly even hear him,
E      A      E
and I lean in

A                E
I wouldn?t want to see him
A               E            F#m   E
I never want to see him through your eyes.
A              E              F#m     A
I only want to see him through mine.
F#m
through mine

Bm                   A               F#m
As One in the well never minds the water,
E                   B
for it's clear and still.
Bm              A               F#m
In time light can come to be a stranger,
E           B
and it takes will.
      A
Always will.
E       A          E
Such a soft spoken man.
E          A             F#m
I had to do most of the talking.
A           E               F#m              E      A     E
I didn?t mind, we stayed up late that night, patient.
