Capo VII


This is really just a more complete version of the other versions that are floating 
around UG. Only a few of the versions have lyrics and those that have them are incorrect. It 
was bugging me, so here is the complete song, separated properly with corrected lyrics.

The entire song is really just Dm, Fmaj7, C and G. For the sake of being as specific as 
possible I will list the chord changes all the way through.


(Dm, Fmaj7, C, G) x 2

   Dm                            Fmaj7
     I was packing bags like a bat out of hell,
          C                                G
     and you were slipping on your dress
    Dm                          Fmaj7
     I was punching holes in a ticket to downtown
       C                       G
     mass, where the spirit fled


          Dm                          Fmaj7
     Away from my body and away from my blood
            C                  G
     like fire that we never lit
                   Dm                 Fmaj7
     Have you ever seen a man so broken
                      C                              Fmaj7
     as that one man that you are looking at


    Dm  Fmaj7        C      G
     nooooo oh, oh oh oh


  Dm                        Fmaj7
     I could try again if you wanted me to
       C                       G
     I swear i'd be a better man
      Dm               Fmaj7
     if roses and daises won't do the trick
          C                         G
      I'll create another perfect plan

      Dm                         Fmaj7
     I swear to the heavens I'll forget all the past
          C                         G
     just say that you need me again
                Dm                     Fmaj7
     have you ever seen a man so broken
                     C                               G
     as that one man that you won't write back

      Dm        Fmaj7
     ohhhhh oh oh oh
            C             G
     I just need you, my river
      Dm        Fmaj7
     ohhhhh oh oh oh
            C             G
     I just need you, my love
      Dm        Fmaj7
     ohhhhh oh oh oh oh oh oh
       Dm        Fmaj7
     ohhhhh oh oh oh oh oh oh

    Dm                                 Fmaj7
     you are looking east with the heaviest heart
          C                 G
     that I can ever recall seeing
   Dm            Fmaj7
     time is not the answer you want
          C                                G
     but time is what your going to get

                Dm                         Fmaj7
     have you ever seen a man burn brighter with love
                 C                               G
     than the man that you are looking at
                        Dm   Fmaj7                C    G
     the answer is no, no no. The answer is no
   Dm  Fmaj 7  C     G
     No no no, it's no
       Dm  Fmaj7
     So love, love
                 C                      G
     come and save me from the drowning
   Dm   Fmaj7
     love, love
                      C             G
     go and save him from the drowning
   Dm Fmaj7 C G
     love
