CAPO 2ND FRET


C
I gathered a mountain
                   F
an ocean of teardrops
                  Dm
A castle of break ups
               G
To hide myself in

                  C
Ive waited a lifetime
                    F
For someone to find me
                    Dm
For someone to reach me
                G
Somewhere to begin

            Am F      C                        G
Now Im a woman I can tell by the look in your eyes
         Am      F       C                          G
Were no strangers I can tell by the way tha t you smile


                     C
Ive painted the sunsets
                         F
The dawnings Ive missed you
                      Dm
The hours Ive kissed you
                     G
To keep my heart alive
                             C
Its the heat of your breathing
                        F
The way you are whispering
                     Dm
The urge of your wanting
                      G
I cant leave you behind

           Am  F       C                         G
Now Im a woman I can tell by the look in your eyes
           Am     F        C                       G
Were no strangers I can tell by the waves in the night

      F   Eb   Bb
      F   Eb   Bb
You bring a little hope bring a little love
      F   Eb   Bb
      F   Eb   Bb
You bring a little hope bring a little love

Solo:  F  Bb  Gm  C

           Dm  Bb      F                       C
Now Im a woman I can tell by the look in your eyes
           Dm   Bb        F                       C
Were no strangers I can tell by the waves in the night


                   Ab
I dont want to own you
                    C#
I dont want to lead you
                      Bb
I just want to love you
          Eb
In my own way
