I WAS BROUGHT TO MY SENSES – Sting Tab by Aatvza Prologue part 1:
 Am7                        Dsus2
Alone with my thoughts this evening

  Am7                    Dsus2
I walked on the banks of Tyne

  Am7                  Dsus2
I wondered how I could win you

      Cadd9*   G       Dsus2
Or if I could make you mine

      Cadd9*   G       Dsus2
Or if I could make you mine
Prologue part 2:
    Am7               Dsus2
The wind it was so insistent

     Am7               Dsus2
With tales of a story south

     Am7                        Dsus2
But when I spied two birds in a sycamore tree

             Cadd9*   G     Dsus2
There came a dryness in my mouth

        Cadd9*  G    Dsus2
Came a dryness in my mouth
Prologue part 3:
    Am7                   Dsus2
For then without rhyme or reason

    Am7                      Dsus2
The two birds did rise up to fly

    Am7                      Dsus2
And where the two birds were flying

  Cadd9*      G       Dsus2
I swear I saw you and I

  Cadd9*      G       Dsus2
I swear I saw you and I
[Intro] Dsus2 D/F# G Asus4 A Bm7 D/F# Bm7 Asus4 A G G/B Cadd9 Dsus4 D Em7 Bm7 Cadd9 Dsus4 D [Verse 1]
G                  G/B 
 I walked out this morning

              Cadd9
It was like a veil had been removed

       Dsus4   D
From before my eyes

Em7
For the first time I saw 

    Bm7
The work of Heaven

       Cadd9
In the line where the hills had been

               Dsus4   D
Married to the sky
[Verse 2]
G              G/B          Cadd9              Dsus4   D
   And all around me… every blade of singing grass

    B7+/G#            Em7
Was calling out your name and

         Cadd9                Dsus4   D
That our love would always last

G                   G/B          
   And inside every turning leaf

       Cadd9                Dsus4   D
Is the pattern of an older tree

    Em7              Bm7
The shape of our future

    Cadd9                   Dsus4   D
The shape of all our history
[Verse 3]
G                    G/B 
   And out of the confusion

          Cadd9            Dsus4   D
Where the river meets the sea

     B7+/G#            Em7
Came things I’d never seen

Cadd9             Dsus4   D
Things I’d never seen 
[Refrain]
       Em7    Dm7     Cmaj7     B7+
I was brought … to my senses, 

       Em7      Dm7        Cmaj7  B7+
I was blind … but now that I can see

       Em7   Dm7      F#m7-5  B7+       C9  A9     
Every sign-   post in na-   ture, said you be-
[Verse 4]
G             G/B
long to me, I know it’s true

Cadd9              Dsus4   D
It’s written in a sky as blue

   Em                Bm7
As blue as your eyes

Cadd9               Dsus4   D
  As blue as your eyes

G                              G/B
  If nature’s red in tooth and claw

     Cadd9                         Dsus4   D
Like winter’s freeze and summer’s thaw

B7+/G#                  Em7
  The wounds she gave me

          Cadd9                   Dsus4   D
Were the wounds that would heal me
[Verse 5]
    G                G/B
And we’d be like the moon and sun

    Cadd9              Dsus4   D
And when our courtly dance had run

    Em                 Bm7
Its course across the sky

        Cadd9             Dsus4   D
Then to-gether we would lie

G                   G/B
  And out of the confusion

          Cadd9             Dsus4   D
Where the river meets the sea

          B7+/G#            Em7
Something new would arrive

          Cadd9                Dsus4   D
Something better would arrive
[Refrain]
       Em7    Dm7     Cmaj7    B7+
I was brought … to my senses, 

      Em7     Dm7          Cmaj7 B7+
I was blind … but now that I can see

      Em7    Dm7     F#7+9 B7+        C9  A9  F#9  F9 Em
Every sign-  post in na-   ture, said you be- long to me
Repeat to the end . . .
