*Note: I don't know proper notation for measures/timing, but each |chord| is a 4-4 measure,
so the first F/C and C of the intro/chorus/instrumental are 8 counts each in total.
(Intro)
| F/C | F/C | C | C | F/C | F/C | G | G | C | C/B | Am | F/C | C | G | C |
(Verse 1)
LAmookin’ back well I see you
With F/Ceyes that shouldn't be so blue
CClearer than the calm before tGhe rain
So Amalive it wasn't fair
To F/Clive without a single care
I lCoved you and you felt for me the sGame
So Dm7beautiful that words could not deF/Cfine
Dm7Sweeter than the Lord's communion wGine
(Chorus)
EvangeF/Cline can't you see I'm sorrCy
Can't you hear my F/Ctears ringin’ through theG night
I wait inC heC/Bll between these Ambed sheetsF/C
And pray to GCodG for morning lCight
(Instrumental)
| F/C | F/C | C | C | F/C | F/C | G | G | C | C/B | Am | F/C | C | G | C |
(Verse 2)
And Amwinter came and blood ran cold
as F/Cever present sleet and snow
COutside of a December window pGane
This Amhouse would never be our home
F/CHand in hand we walk alone
I thCought the sun would never shine aGgain
And the Dm7oldest violin could never whF/Cine
A Dm7melody as sorrowful as mGine
(Chorus)
EvangeF/Cline can't you see I'm sorrCy
Can't you hear my F/Ctears ringin’ through theG night
I wait inC heC/Bll between theseAm bed sheF/Cets
And pray to GCodG for morning lCight
(Instrumental)
| F/C | F/C | C | C | F/C | F/C | G | G | C | C/B | Am | F/C | C | G | C |
(Verse 3)
Now I've Amseen your face a thousand times
And F/Cnightmares runnin’ through my mind
It Churts, just to preGtend
But the Amdevil fell and so have I
From F/Cperfect grace you faced the sky
CNever thought a love like this would Gend
Now your wDm7ords they cut right through me like a kF/Cnife
I Dm7gave my love and now I take my lGife
(Chorus)
EvangeF/Cline can't you see I'm sorrCy
Can't you hear my F/Ctears ringin through the niGght
I wait inC heC/Bll between theseAm bed sheF/Cets
And pray to GCodG for morning lCight
I wait inC heC/Bll between theseAm bed sheF/Cets
And pray to GCodG for morning lCight
