I THOUGHT YOU KNEW
Written by Skip Ewing, Keith Urban and Matt Rollings

The chord voicings in this arrangement mimic the big piano chords
on a single guitar. The chord names allow for either the extension
or the bass note to be omitted in a simplified performance.

2 beats per chord
` = 2 beats
' = 1 beat

INTRO:
Am  Cmaj7    Fadd9  `    Am  Cmaj7    Fadd9  `

VERSE:
C   G/C         Fadd9  `  C         G/C  Dm7   E7/G#
  I thought you knew        I guess I as-sumed too    
Am     Am9        C/D     D         Fadd9  C      G7sus4  `
Much I don't know how but now we're so far out of touch
C       G/C   Fadd9  `  C    G/C    Dm7  E7/G#
  And I never planned     to so mis-un-  der-
Am        Am9      C/D    D         Fadd9       `          Gsus4      G
stand but what you needed you never asked me to give and I swear as I live

CHORUS:
C   `           Bb/C    `         Fadd9          `       Dm7   G11
  I thought you knew my heart was yours and that we were so to-gether that
C        `      Bb/C  `        F         F/E     Dm7     'G11   'E7/G#
We would always be  I don't be-lieve you leavin' me's the answer I'm not
Am            Em/G             Fadd9         '   'E7/G#
Askin' you to let me rush back in and fail a-gain   I'm
Am             Em/G             Fadd9   '    'C/E
Askin' for one chance not to as-sume so I can say
Dm7   `  G7sus4    `
And do     all the things I thought you

RE-INTRO:
Am  Cmaj7    Fadd9  `    Am  Cmaj7    Fadd9  `
Knew

VERSE:
C    G/C     Fadd9  `  C    G/C       Dm7   E7/G#
  So here we are         so far we're still so
Am       Am9      C/D     D             Fmaj9         `         Gsus4       G
Far from where we know we should be I'm searching for words and you haven't heard

CHORUS:
C   `           Bb/C    `         Fadd9          `       Dm7   G11
  I thought you knew my heart was yours and that we were so to-gether that
C        `      Bb/C  `        F         F/E     Dm7     'G11   'E7/G#
We would always be  I don't be-lieve you leavin' me's the answer I'm not
Am            Em/G             Fadd9         '   'E7/G#
Askin' you to let me rush back in and fail a-gain   I'm
Am             Em/G             Fadd9   '    'C/E
Askin' for one chance not to as-sume so I can say
Dm7   `  G7sus4    `
And do     all the things I thought you

CODA:
Fmaj9  `  G/F  `  Fmaj9  `  Gsus4  `
Knew                                 I thought you
Am  Cmaj7  Fadd9  `                 Am  Cmaj7  Fadd9  `
Knew           oh God I thought you knew
Am  Cmaj7  Fmaj9

A|------------3---------------------------0--------|
E|---3----3---------3---------3-----------1-----1--|

These voicings give a reasonable sound which is not too 'dirgy'.
Bb/C for C13 is the biggest compromise.

Am9 is a passing chord on the 'and' of Beat-2
Harmony returns to Am on Beat-4

A similar passing chord occurs in the CHORUS:

   C        G/C     C    Bb/C
     "I     thought you  knew"
  "We would al-     ways be"

i need the chord charts for a lot of the chords...plz post em on the comment section or in ur tab

All of my arrangements are presented with recommended
chord voicings outlined at the bottom of the chart.
The countrytabs site has a facility to display graphic
images of chords but the database does not include the
suggestions I preferred for this work.
This chart was re-submitted after I discovered that the
original version had been "enhanced/corrupted" by the
moderator.
