When I Was Yours Chords by Emmylou Harris

[N] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ In a lonely room, [Eb] waiting for the [Bb] night to fall
Hear your voice, and [F] every whipper with a [Bb] call
And it takes me back, to a [Eb] better place
And a sweeter [Bb] time when I [F] was yours
And you [Bb] were mine, as the shadows fall
And [Eb] the light moves dim, I [Bb] see your face, I close my eyes
And [F] feel the warmth of your embrace as I [Bb] long for you
_ [Eb] Those days when [Bb] hearts were twined, and [F] I was yours
And you [Bb] were mine
_ [F] When I was yours and you were mine
[Eb] A truer [Bb] love than Carolina
Never was to cross her hills, to dance beneath [F] the stars _
[Eb] And life was sweeter than the [Bb] flowers blooming on the vine
When I [F] was yours, and you [Bb] were mine _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ So I lay my head, on a [Eb] pillow soft and [Bb] stained
And I hear the cry for you
Through [F] all the long, lonely [Bb] years, when I dream
Till the morning [Eb] sun [Bb] comes to shine, when I [F] was yours
And you [Bb] were mine
Kiss of the fall, back from the grave
[Eb] To a better place, and a sweeter [Bb] time, when I [F] was yours
And you [Eb] were mine _ _
