[Intro]
C Fmaj7 Cmaj9 C
C Fmaj7 Cmaj9 C
[Verse 1]
C Fmaj7
Oh my love, you've been crying.
Cmaj9 C
Oh honey baby please?
C Fmaj7
We can work it out I,
Cmaj9 C
Can't survive unless you're next to me.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
And all my life before I met you,
Cmaj9 C
When I was trying hard in love,
C Fmaj7
I thought the sun was going down,
Cmaj9 C Fmaj7 Cmaj9 C
But the sun was coming up.
[Verse 2]
C Fmaj7
And all those others that I stayed with,
Cmaj9 C
Their eyes are polished stone.
C Fmaj7
And all my devils I made deals with,
Cmaj9 C
So I wouldn't have to sleep alone.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
And all my life before I met you,
Cmaj9 C
When I was trying hard in love,
C Fmaj7
I thought the sun was going down,
Cmaj9 C
But the sun was coming up.
[Break]
C Fmaj7 Cmaj9 C
WoooOOOoooOOoOo
C Fmaj7 Cmaj9 C
WoooOOooOO ooooo
[Verse 3]
C Fmaj7
I see your face in the window
Cmaj9 C
I see your face in the reflections of the moon
C Fmaj7
I feel my old ancient shadows
Cmaj9 C
Diasappear when I am near to you
[Verse 4]
C Fmaj7
So take this heart and take this feeling,
Cmaj9 C
Take my dark and reeling mind.
C Fmaj7
And from these poor words find the meaning,
Cmaj9 C
Far deeper than these clumsy lines.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
And all my life before I met you,
Cmaj9 C
When I was trying hard in love,
C Fmaj7
I thought the sun was going down,
Cmaj9 C
But the sun was coming up.
