[F#m]
Well, I've been a lot of places [F] in my life and time
[A] I've sung a lot of songs and I've [D#] made some bad rhymes
[D] Acted out [C#m] my love in stages Ten [D]
thousand [C#m] people watching
[D] Now we're alone and I am singing [F] my song [A] for you
[G#] [F#m]
And I know [F#] your image of me [F] is what I hope to be
[A] And I've treated [E] you unkindly, but darling, [D#] can't you see
[D] [Dm] There's no one more [C#m] important to me Darling, [D]
can't you [C#m] please see through me
[D] Now we're alone and I am singing my song [A] for you
[F#m]
Well, you taught me [F] precious secrets [A] of a truth [D#] withholding nothing
And then you [D] came [E] out in front, but [A] I was hiding
[E] [F#m] Now I'm so [F] much better, [F#m] and if [A] my words don't [D#] come together
Listen to the melody, [C#] for my love is in there hiding

And [F] I love you in a place where there's no space or time
[A] And I [E] love you for my life, you [D#] are a friend of mine

remember [D] when we [C#m] were together
[D] We were alone and I [F#] was singing my song [A] for you
[F#m]
Well, you taught me precious [F] secrets of
[A] a truth [D#] withholding nothing
And then [F#m] you [D] [E] came out in front, but I was hiding
[F#m] Now we're so much better, [A] and if my words don't come [D#] together
[D]
Listen to the melody, for my [C#] love is in there hiding
[E] [G#]
[G#m] [A] [G#]
And I love you in a place where [F] there's no space or time
[A] I love you for my life, you [D#] are a friend of mine

And when my life [C#m] is over,
[D] remember when we [C#m] were together
We were alone and I was singing [F#] my song [A] for you
We [D]
were alone and I was singing my song for [A] you
