riff
  C         C/B           Am
You put a rose in my hand

       F
Put a dollar in my pocket

               G         
But you don't understand

riff     C        C/B          Am
How the days grow longer, the sky is black as night

   F                             G
I see the morning but you won't see the light

  Em                       Am
I thought about you for a long, long time

  Em                       Am                  Fm
I wrote about you but the words don't seem to rhyme

    C          C/B    Am
And now you're lying here

       F            G         C    riff
But my heart still beats for you

 C     C/B     Am
Had a dream about you

    F
You sat right down beside me

         G                      riff
And you told me we were through

        C      C/B          Am
It was all so real and you told me reasons why

     F
You brought me to the window 

         G
And you taught me how to fly

   Em                      Am
I thought about you for a long, long time

 Em                       Am                  Fm
I said I love you but we just don't have the time

     C          C/B   Am
And now you're lying here

        F           G         C
But my heart still beats for you
[cello part] C C/B Am F G
    Em                       Am
I thought to hold you for a long, long time

     Em                     Am                  Fm
You said I love you but my heart won't seem to chime in

     C          C/B   Am
And now you're lying here

        F           G         C
And my heart still beats for you

 C/B  Am            F           G         C
I'm trying, and my heart still beats for you
