Intro: G D EM C x2 Chorus:
                G                      D
If you were a stone then I'd be the rain

          Em                      C
Turn you to sand as the time slips away

               G                     D
If you were a tree then I'd be the earth

            Em                     C
Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
Verse 1:
G                D
I am a metaphor for all the things I couldn't say

Em                              C
    It's never easy, then it hurts

G                         D
Like scratching diamonds I have tried to find my way to you

Em                                 C 
    But we're both moving in reverse
Pre Chorus:
G                                  D
 I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by

Em                                      C
Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
Chorus Verse 2:ttp://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/r/ron_pope/if_you_were_a_stone.html ] Some nights you're a photograph fading in my memory Some days I feel you on my skin We're trading silence There are words that seem to steal our breath And I just dream about your lips Pre Chorus Chorus Chorus 2:
                   G
We'd count the stars

                     D
My hands in your leaves

                    Em                        C
And I'd hold my breath 'til we both fell asleep

                 G                    D
If you were a stone then I'd be the rain,

              Em                      C
Turn you to sand as the time slips away
