This one, this one, this one ...[Verse 1]
A F#m Did I ever take you in my arms C#m D Look you in the eye, tell you that I do? A E Did I ever open up my heart Em | A | % | Let you look inside?
[Chorus]
Bm E A F#m7 If I never did it, I was only waiting Bm E A For a better moment that didn’t come Bm E A F#m7 There never could be a better moment B5 E A Than this one, this one Bm E A F#m7 This swan is gliding above the ocean Bm E A A God is riding upon his back Bm E A F#m7 How calm the water and bright the rainbow B5 E A Fade this one to black
[Verse 2]
A F#m Did I ever touch you on the cheek C#m D Say that you were mine, thank you for the smile? A E Did I ever knock upon your door Em | A | % | Try to get inside?
[Chorus]
Bm E A F#m7 If I never did it, I was only waiting Bm E A For a better moment that didn’t come Bm E A F#m7 There never could be a better moment B5 E A Than this one, this one Bm E A F#m7 This swan is gliding above the ocean Bm E A A God is riding upon his back Bm E A F#m7 How calm the water and bright the rainbow B5 E A Fade this one to black
[Middle 8]
D E A F#m What opportunities did we allow to flow by G Em A Feeling like the timing wasn’t quite right? D E A F#m What kind of magic might have worked if we had stayed calm G | E | % | % | Couldn’t I have given you a better life? (break)
[Verse 3]
A F#m Did you ever take me in your arm C#m D Look me in the eye, tell me that you do? A E Did I ever open up my heart Em | A | % | Let you look inside?
