Slow, sweet, fingerpicked- note that the chorus is heavier and more powerful
Listen for the fingerpicking pattern and how long each chord is held in the intro and breaks
Intro: F C B Am G Em F Em G
For all the times I tried fo[F]r this[C]
B? Am G
And every chance at you I missed
I?ve been known[Em] to go my way, but I con[F]fess[C]
B? Am G
It made me miss you more
I drew my line across th[F]e sand[C]
B? Am G
And set my flag in no man?s land
But he[Em]re I am the one man[F] band[C]
B? C
With a song that?s meant for two
And the[F]re is a light,[G] from a higher window[Am]
Shining down [F]on you tonight[Em][G]
And the music[Em] floats on the breeze[Am]
Bringing an easier [C]time[G]
And all of our cards ar[G]e on the table[Am]
Tell me what [F]you want to do[Em][G]
Just don?t tell [F]me that it?s too late[G]
For me to love y[C]ou
Break: F C B Am G Em F Em G
How perfect we were meant to be[F][C]
B? Am G
Our warm and silent symmetry
It?s t[Em]imes like these when all, all we[F] need[C]
Is to be reminde[G]d
And I h[F]ave flown a thousand miles
To em[C]pty room and crowded aisles
And we [Am]went from cathedral bells
To sh[G]ow and tell and wish you we[Em]lls
And I, [F]I still look at you and[C] I am blinded I am b[G]linded[Am]
Because there is a light, fro[G]m a higher window[Am]
Shining down [F]on us tonight[Em][G]
And the music[Em] floats on the breeze[Am]
From an easier[C] time[G]
And all of our cards ar[G]e on the table[Am]
Tell me what [F]you want to do[Em][G]
Just don?t tell [F]me that it?s too late[G]
Don?t tell[F] me that it?s too late now[G]
Just don?t tell m[F]e that it?s too late[G]
For me to love you
