Biography:
Jonatha Brooke is an American folk rock singer-songwriter whose music is marked by complex harmonies and poignant lyrics. Her career began while she was a student at Amherst College in the early 1980s when she and fellow student Jennifer Kimball formed Jonatha & Jennifer, releasing one tape under that name before renaming themselves to The Story (their tracks often had interesting back-stories, which they would share when playing live). They released two albums - Grace in Gravity (1991) and The Angel in the House (1993).

[Verse]
Gm
It would take a wide net
Eb
To drag that deep
Cm
Through all the years
Gm
The years I believed you
Gm
You'd be hard-pressed
Eb
To face the fact
Cm
Of all the lies
Gm
And the fears that deceived you
D Em
But you say it doesn't matter now
D Em
Being jealous
N.C.
Nothing standing in your way
D Em
But you forgot to mention how
G
You were done with me
N.C C G
It's not your problem anymore
F G C D
[Chorus]
G C G
To be true, to be kind

To never walk away

And it's true you were blind
C G
No matter what I would say
G
To you
C G
Is there nothing sacred
Gm Eb Dm Gm

[Verse]
Gm
I will turn my back
Eb
To the wind in your wake
Cm Eb
To the cold shards of the life strewn behind you

Your record scratched and these lines will break
Cm
Through the drone of time
Gm
Till their meaning will find you
D Em
But you say it doesn't matter now
D Em
Being jealous
N.C.
Nothing standing in your way
