Cm                             G7/B
I've been so many places in my life and time
Bm/A                     Am7b5  
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
Ab                Eb/G
I've acted out my life in stages
Fm7                     Eb/G
With ten thousand people watching
Ab        
But we're alone
Eb/Bb           Bb11          Eb   G7 
And i'm singing this song for you

I treated you unkindly but girl can't you see
Ab                      Eb/G
There's no one more important to me
Fm7                  Eb/G
So darling can't you please ssee through me
Ab                Eb/Bb

You taught me precious secrets of the

Truth, withholding nothing
Ab             Eb/Bb       Bb11     Ab/Eb    Eb  G7/D
You ame out in front and I was hiding
Cm                 G7/B

My words don't come together
Ab                   Eb/G      F7              Bb11 Bb7
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
