Verse 1:
     Em     D           C      Em   Em
If a fiddler played you a song my love
       EmD         C   C   Em  Em
And if I  gave you a wheel
          C          D       G    Am  Am
Would you spin for my heart and loneliness
          C   D     C  C  Em  Em
Would you spin for my love

Verse 2:
If I gave up all of my pride for you
And only loved you for now
Would you hide my fears and never say
tomorrow I must go

Chorus:
C      D            Em  Em
   Everywhere there's rain my love
C      D            Em  Em
   Everywhere there's fear

Verse 3:
If you tell me a lie I'll cry for you
Tell me of sin and I'll laugh
If you tell me of all the pain you've had
I'll never smile again

Chorus

Verse 4:
I can plainly see that our parts have changed
Our sands are shifted around
Need I beg to you for one more day
to find our lonely love

Chorus-End

Suggestions on how to play:
Listen to the acoustic version on the DREAM LETTER album (2-CD).
Capo on 2:nd fret to get a somewhat more muted sound.
This is a beautiful lovesong with a 4/4 halfbeat folksong feeling
A - corresponds to 1/8 beat. Stomp your feet at every ^ to get that
halfbeat feeling.
