Tanita Tikaram - We almost got it together

W^Ce almost got it tog^Gether And I^Am'll be your favourite th^Fing Oh st^Cand by the river with h^Gard-luck eyes And I^Am'll just be open and s^Fing And i^Cf I was telling you st^Gories I was o^Amnly trying to surpr^Fise I w^Cish I was like the fr^Fog princess G | C F C G | And I'd never tell you lies

And d^Cown by the soil of the h^Gard life Oh t^Amhey like to greet us with sm^Files Th^Cey like to tell us their go^God hostess Has tr^Amavelled a million m^Files But y^Cou'd like it written cl^Goser Yes, y^Amou'd like it written p^Fure If I t^Cold you this, would you m^Fiss my kiss G | C F C G | Would you come right back for more

Oh, I'd l^Amike to be, what I w^Fanna be But you w^Cant to carry ^Gon But y^Amou need to take, what y^Fou have to take G | C F C G | But I'd still be here when you're gone

And th^Cere's a light by your w^Gindow And I'd l^Amike to capture you b^Fy there And I'd l^Cike to hold you for a^Gll to see But t^Amhey don't really c^Fare And if ^CI said you're no peccad^Gillo Yes, ^AmI said you're a major th^Fing Would yo^Cu stand by me, at th^Fe corner dock G | C F C G | And say, "Yes, this girl is the swing!"

Oh, I'd l^Amike to be, what I w^Fanna be But you w^Cant to carry ^Gon But you n^Ameed to take, what you h^Fave to take G | C F C G | But I'd still be here when you're gone

^AmAnd I'd like an^Fother cue That's w^Chy I strain to s^Gee ^AmAnd I'd like the b^Fest in you G | C F C G | Cause you write the best in me

And e^Cverybody was sw^Ginging Oh sw^Amooning to the heart in m^Fe Oh th^Cey were sure that I'd be b^Gurning, yes So their t^Amart swerve to here might b^Fe But if ^CI said "you're gold^G, inside, yes?" And ^Amif you were true to m^Fe Would you ^Chang around with that c^Freepy smile G | C F C G | Crawl home back to me

Oh, I'd l^Amike to be, what I w^Fanna be But you w^Cant to carry ^Gon But you n^Ameed to take, what you h^Fave to take G | C F C G | But I'd still be here when you're gone
