Intro: C C/B C/A F G
C
All of these grateful looks
C/A
All these grateful eyes
F G
All the furious stares and the fretful sighs
C
Promising everything
C/A
To everyone
F
We'll be back soon
G
You're my favorite one
C
And I'll keep it quiet
C/A
I'll hold you dear
F G
Your whisperin fills the ear
C
Tell me you'll stay
C/A
We would have such fun
F G
And a lie, you don't need anyone
F G
And the screams, the wails, and the call
C C/B C/A
The headiness of the Fall
F G
Ten-thousand miles from where we began
C C/B C/A
I fell asleep with a picture in hand
F G C
It was all for a woman
C C/A
You say that you're grateful for the time alone
F G
Two years away and I don't miss home
C C/A
And everyone asks you if you still think of her
F G
So you smile politely and you demur
C C/A
But then all at once your head starts to swell
F G
And you can feel her breath on your skin
C C/A
If I let you stay, the same spot today
F G
She's above you, below you in ways
F
And you're shiverin cold
G
Like you're just 10 years old
C C/B C/A
And she's lying asleep in your bed
F
And you're standing beside her
G
The light from inside her
C C/B C/A
Filling up the darkness in your head
F G C
It was all for a woman
F
And you've drowned in the teasing
G
You've forgotten the reason
C C/B C/A
The muse inspired the art
F
You'd give anything for
G
Her to say them once more
C C/B C/A
The words you believed at the start
F G
Ten-thousand miles from where it began
C C/B C/A
Falling asleep with a picture in hand
F G
And it was all... it was all
C C/B C/A
For the look in her eyes
F G C
Of the promise of the light of a woman
