[Intro]
G* D* Em* C* Cmaj C* x4
[Verse 1]
Cmaj Gmaj D Cmaj
Some mornings I pray for evening, for the day to be done.
Cmaj Gmaj D
Some summer days I hide away, and wait for rain to come.
Cmaj Gmaj D Cmaj
Cos' it turned out hell will not be found, Within the fires below.
Cmaj Gmaj D
But in making do and muddling through, When you've nowhere else to go.
[Chorus]
C** G** D**
But then I remem ------ ber you,
C** Cadd9* D**
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
C** G** D**
And if you remem ------ bered me,
C** Cadd9* D**
You could save me from the way I tend to be,
The way I tend to be.
FILL:
G* D* Em* C* Cmaj C* x2
[Verse 2]
Some days I wake up dazed my dear, and I don't know where I am.
I've been running now so long I'm scared, I've forgotten how to stand.
And I stand around in airport bars, and gather thoughts to think:
That if all I had was one long road, it could drive a man to drink.
[Chorus]
But then I remem ------ ber you,
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
And if you remem ------ bered me,
You could save me from the way I tend to be.
[Bridge]
Am G Cmaj Dsus2 Em A* Gmaj
Because I've said I love you so many times that the words kinda die in my mouth.
Am G Cmaj Dsus2 Em A* Gmaj
And I meant it each time with each beautiful woman but somehow it never works out.
Am G Cmaj Dsus2 Em A* Gmaj
But you stood apart in my calloused heart, and you taught me and here's what I learned:
Am G Cmaj Dsus2 Em A* Gmaj
That love is about all the changes you make and not just three small words.
[Pre-Chorus]
C**~ G**~ D**~
And then I catch my ------ self,
C**~ Cadd9*~ D**
Catching your scent on someone else,
C**~ G**~ D**~
In a crowd ------ ed space,
C** Cadd9* D**
And it takes me somewhere I cannot qui --- te place.
[Chorus]
But then I remem ------ ber you,
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
And if you remem ------ bered me,
You could save me from the way I tend to be,
The way I tend to be.
[Outro]
G* D* Em* C* Cmaj C*
G* D* Em* C* Cmaj C*
The way I tend to
G* D* Em* C* Cmaj C*
be --------- The way I tend to be.
G* D* Em* C*
