How Kind of You

A F#m
How kind of you to think of me
A F#m
when I was out of sorts.
A F#m
It really meant a lot to be
C#m Em
in someone else's thoughts,
C#m Em
someone else's mind,
C#m Dm Dm/F A
someone else as kind, as you.

The thoughtfulness you showed has made
a difference in my life.
I won't forget how unafraid
you were that long dark night.
I thought that all was lost,
I thought I'd never find,
Dm Dm/F A
a someone quite as kind, as you.

I thougt my faith had gone,
I thought there couldn't be,
a someone who was there for me.

Inter 1:[A Em/B C Em/B] x3 [Esus4 E]

How kind of you to stick by me
during the final bout.
And listen to the referee
as I was counted out,
I thought my time was up,
I thought I'd never find
a someone as kind, as you.
I thought my faith had gone,…

How kind of you to think of me.
How kind of you.

Inter 2:[A Em/B C Em/B] x3 [A]

How kind of you to think of me.
How kind of you.

end:[F E] x3 [A]

Jenny Wren
*I know this is wrong I've seen him in concert and he uses an alternate tuning this
as close as I could get. Intro doen't have a capo on the guitar. It is pretty much like
bird you use finger picking for the chords, before the F#m pick the E string.

Capo 1

Intro: A F#m F#m E D D E F#m
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B--2--0----------------------------------------------------------------|
G---------2h4--4----------2h4-2/1--0---0-2-2h3-------------------------|
D----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Play the intro over the verse - it's the same until "took her song away")
A F#m F#m E D
Like so many girls, Jenny Wren could sing
D E E F#m F#m E
Am
But a broken heart, took her song away

Like the other girls, Jenny Wren took wing
She could see the world, and it's foolish ways

Am Dm A/C# Dm Ddim
Em7 C
How we spend our days, casting love a side
Am Dm A/C# Dm Ddim Am
Losing sight of life day by day

She saw poverty, breaking all the home
Wounded warriors, took her song away

[Solo]
Am Em F#m x3 (3rd time hold F#m)
Am Dm A/C# Dm Ddim
Em7 C
Am Dm A/C# Dm Ddim Am

But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing
When this broken world, mends its foolish ways

Now we spend our days, catching up on life
All because of you, Jenny Wren

You saw, who we are, Jenny Wren

Am Em F#m x3

Outro:

At the Mercy

C D5 D D5dim
D6
At the mercy, at the mercy At the mercy of a busy road, Who can handle such a heavy load?
Em/B A#dim A#5
E7/G# G D
At the mercy, At the mercy At the mercy of a busy day, We can think of nothing more to say

Dmaj7 F#m7 Bm Bdim
G
If you show me love, I won't refuse I know you'd never make me choose
F#m F#/A# Bm A
Bm Bdim
Between the love I've got and the love I'd lose sometimes
Bm Bdim Bm
I'd rather run and hide, Then stay and face the fear inside

C D5 D D5dim
D6
At the mercy, at the mercy At the mercy of a busy day, Who can bear to turn their head away?
Em/B A#dim A#5
E7/G# G D
At the mercy, at the mercy At the mercy of a busy road We can watch the universe explode

(D-A-G-D-G-D-A) x2 D

Dmaj7 F#m7 Bm Bdim
G
If you take me up, I won't say no I guess you'd rather see me grow
F#m F#/A# Bm A
Bdim
Into a better man than the one you know Sometimes
Bm Bdim Bm
my head is hanging low It's time to get on with the show

C D5 D D5dim
D6
At the mercy, at the mercy At the mercy of a busy day I can think of nothing more to say

Riding to Vanity Fair
Am
I bit my tongue I never talk too much, I try to be so strong. I did my best
I used a gentle touch, I've done it for so long. You put me down But I can laugh
it off And act like nothing's wrong Why pretend? I think I've heard enough
Of your familiar song.

Em C
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do I'll try to take my mind off you.
Em C
Now that you don't need my help I've used the time to think about myself.

Am
You're not aware Of what you put me through But now the feeling's gone
But I don't mind Do what you have to do You don't fool anyone.

Em C
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do I'll take a different point of you.
Em C
Now that you don't need my help I've used the time to think about myself.

F
The definition of friendship Apparently you're to be sure to support
G F
the one that you love and I was open to friendship But you didn't seem
G
to have to spare While you were riding to Vanity Fair.

Am
There was a time When everyday was young, The sun would always shine.
We sang along When all the songs we sung Believing every line.

Solo: (Em C) x2

F
That's the trouble with friendship Someone to feed it it has to be real
G F
Or it wouldn't be right And I keep hoping for friendship But I wouldn't
G Am
dare to presume it was there While you were riding to Vanity Fair.
