Glen Hansard – Wherever I Fall (Guitar)

C
I have a wife I haven't seen

G
Since lilacs bloomed in Saint-Hippolyte

C
She always wears them in her hair

G
She lets them fall down everywhere

C
I can see her in the glowin' light

G
Dressin' without a sound

C
I promised I'd be home all right

G
But I gotta lay this body down

Am                  C
So take this letter to my wife

F                   Fm7
And tell her that I loved my life

Am                C
And tell my boys, the Lord he found me

F                                Dm
When I say their names out loud, they're all around me

Am      Am7        F
Tell em not to cry at all

Am        C          F
Heaven is wherever I fall

C
I have a girl, I think I love her

G
Should have told her, instead I told her mother

C
I gave her chocolates, I bought a ring

G
But I never told her anything

C
But I can see her in every detail now

G
Turning in my mind

C
I barely knew that girl at all

G
But I will love her till the end of time

Am                  C
So take this letter to my girl

F                   F7
Tell her that I saw the whole world

Am             C
Say that right before I fell

F                         Dm
I said her name out loud: Isabel

Am       Am7        F
Tell her not to cry at all

Am        C          F
Heaven is wherever I fall

C
I have a father, he isn't well

G
Thinks he might be going to hell

C
He was a sinner, he liked to fight

G
So I don't know, he might be right

C
I can see him every Sunday morning

G
Diving into the fray

C
He wasn't one of God's best men

G
But I loved him anyway

Am                  C
So take this letter to him, please

F                   F7
Tell him I can't wait to see him

Am               C
I went in first, I rang the bell

F                              Dm
I called his name out loud and I gave 'em hell

Am      Am7        F
So tell him not to cry at all

Am        C          F
Heaven is wherever I fall

Am            Am7
Tell 'em not to cry at all

Am        C
Heaven is wherever I fall

Am            Am7
Tell 'em not to cry at all

Am       C
Heaven is wherever I fall
