Chords

[Verse 1]
 C
I sang the song slowly

   G6                C
As she stood in the shadows

     F
She stepped to the light

        G6            C
As my silver strings spun

     C               G
She called with her eyes

        F          C
To the tune I’s a-playing

         C            Csus4
But the song it was long

         G6         C Csus4 Csus2
And I’d only begun
[Verse 2]
 C
Through a bullet of light

    G6         C
Her face was reflecting

     F
The fast fading words

      G6              C
That rolled from my tongue

       C               G
With a long-distance look

      F          C
Her eyes was on fire

        C            Csus4
But the song it was long

              G6             C Csus4 Csus2
And there was more to be sung
[Verse 3]
    C
My eyes danced a circle

  G6                C
Across her clear outline

          F
With her head tilted sideways

     G6        C
She called me again

    C              G
As the tune drifted out

             F                 C
She breathed hard through the echo

         C           Csus4
But the song it was long

            G6           C Csus4 Csus2
And it was far to the end
[Verse 4]
  C
I glanced at my guitar

     G6           C
And played it pretending

         F
That of all the eyes out there

G6          C
I could see none

       C                G
As her thoughts pounded hard

         F              C
Like the pierce of an arrow

        C           Csus4
But the song it was long

       G6             C Csus4 Csus2
And it had to get done
[Verse 5]
       C
As the tune finally folded

   G6              C
I laid down the guitar

     F
Then looked for the girl

       G6             C
Who’d stayed for so long

     C              G
But her shadow was missing

     F         C
For all of my searching

            C        Csus4
So I picked up my guitar

      G6               C Csus4 Csus2
And began the next song
