INTRO: Am Dm C F E Am G Am D F Am The autumn leaves were falling
         G
On these old cathedral walls

           Dm                      C
There were candles in the darkness

               G
Singing in the choir

    Am
And reading out the names

           G
Of all the ones who've gone before

              F
Well, I could tell that you were thinking

          C             G
About the meaning of it all
CHORUS 1:
        F                    G
And you said to me "Who will open up my eyes

       F                              C            G
To the wonder, and the glory, and the stars in the sky?"

        F                    G
And you said to me "For this road I'm travelling on

  Em       F                C G   F   G F
I need someone beside me forever. Who?  Who?"
CHORUS 2:
  G          C           Dm       G
I said "It's me, and I'm ready to go

E        Am                    F
Ready to show, that I'll never let you down

      C                           G
And I want you to know, that this power will grow

      Am                    F
Every day, every beat of my heart

                   Am
Forever, forever"
We went down to the river
       G
And we found a small café

               Dm
They said that over in the corner

               C            G
Sat the writer Ernest Hemingway

    Am                            G
And here he made his story of the lovers in the war

               F
And through it all they stayed together

         C           G
'Til the rain had to fall
CHORUS 1:
        F                     G
And you said to me, "Who will be the one apart

         F                                  C           G
Who will teach me, with conviction, all the ways of the heart?"

        F                    G
And you said to me, "On this journey of my life,

       F                     C G   F   G F
I need someone to love me forever. Who?  Who?"
CHORUS 2:
          G              C           Dm       G
And I said, listen "It's me, and I'm ready to go

E        Am                    F
Ready to show, that I'll never let you down

      C                           G
And I want you to know, that this power will grow

      Am                    F
Every day, every beat of my heart
I love you, I love you"
      C   Dm  G  E  Am
"It's me

               F
And I'll never let you down

      C                           G
And I want you to know, that this power will grow

      Am                    F
Every day, every beat of my heart
Forever, I love you, forever" OUTRO: (## Instrumental and Lead Break ##)
