Ron Pope - A Drop in the Ocean
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capo 5
Am
I?ve been burned up by the fire
G D
That makes me wait for you
Am
Been sleeping on my side
G D
The way you used to do
Am
And I know just where you are
G D
You?re not so far away
F
But I can?t come to you like this
G D
So I guess I?ll stay away
Am
There?re things men learn from living
G D
Things they learn in hell
Am
Things I learned because my father left
G D
It?s probably just as well
Am
I?ve been standing here all by myself
G D
In the pouring rain
F
I think there?s someone I should call right now
G D
But I can?t recall her name
Am F
A drop in the ocean
C G
A change in the weather
Am F C G
I was praying that you and me might end up together
Am F C G
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
Am F C
But I'm holding you closer than most
G Am F C G/C
'Cause you are my heaven
F C
I don't wanna waste the weekend
G Am
If you don't love me, pretend
F C G
A few more hours, then it's time to go
F C
As my train rolls down the East coast
G Am
I wonder how you'll keep warm
F C G
It's too late to cry, too broken to move on
Dm C G
Still I can't let you be
Dm C G
Most nights I hardly sleep
Dm C G F
Don't take what you don't need from me
Am F
A drop in the ocean
C G
A change in the weather
Am F C G
I was praying that you and me might end up together
Am F C G
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
Am F C
But I'm holding you closer than most
G Am F C G/C
'Cause you are my heaven
F C
Misplaced trust and old friends
G Am
Never counting regrets
F C G
By the grace of God, I do not rest at all
F C
New England as the leaves change
G Am
The last excuse that I'll claim
F C G
I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl
Dm C G
Still I can't let you be
Dm C G
Most nights I hardly sleep
Dm C G F
Don't take what you don't need from me
Am F
A drop in the ocean
C G
A change in the weather
Am F C G
I was praying that you and me might end up together
Am F C G
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
Am F C
But I'm holding you closer than most
G ~
'Cause you are my
Dm C G
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
Dm C G
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Dm C G
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
Dm C G
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Am F
A drop in the ocean
C G
A change in the weather
Am F C G
I was praying that you and me might end up together
Am F C G
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
Am F C
But I'm holding you closer than most
G Am F C G/C
'Cause you are my heaven

You are my heaven
