x...THEN I MET YOU... by The Proclaimers --------------------................... *from 'Sunshine on Leith' (1988)* *CAPO 3rd FRET* (Original Key: Eb) Intro: C D F (x4) Verse 1: C D Thought that I'd be happy, going to be so happy, F Living life alone and never sharing anything. C D Thought that I was finished, thought that I was complete, F Thought that I was whole, instead of being half of something. C D Thought that I was growing, growing older, wiser, F Understanding why this world held nothing for my spirit. C D Thought that I was destined, destined to be nothing, F Destined to be nothing in this world and then I met you. Chorus 1: C D F C I... met you, I... met you. Verse 2: C D Thought that God had failed me, thought my prayers were useless, F Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him. C D Thought the book was written, thought the game had ended, F Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another. C D Thought my faith was misplaced, thought my back was broken, F Broken by a weight that I was never fit to carry. C D Thought I knew this city, thought I knew all about it; F And then one night I went to Morningside and you were waiting. Chorus 2: C D F C I... met you, I... met you. C D F C I... met you, I... met you.
