  C#5                     G#5                                             
I've been so many places in my life and time
  E5                       A#5           
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
       A5                   G#5                                          
I've acted out my life in stages
      F#5                 G#5                                             
With ten thousand people watching
 F#5            G#5                 A5               E5    G#5                   
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you


 C#5                  G#5                                                 
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
E5                      A#5                                              
I treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
        A5                       G#5                                     
There's no one more important to me
 F#5                         G#5                                          
Baby, can't you please see through me
 F#5              G#5                 A5               E5     G#5                
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
C#5                     G#5             E5              A#5                    
You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
 A5                B5              E5                                    
You came out in front and I was hiding
G#5  C#5             G#5              E5                 A#5                      
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
A5               G#5           F#5               B5                           
Listen to the melody cause my love's in there hiding
  C#5                  G#5   
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
  E5                       A#5
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
       A5           G#5
And when my life is over
  F#5                 G#5
Remember when we were together
 F#5         G#5                    A5           E5    G#5
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
C#5                     G#5             E5              A#5                    
You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
 A5                B5              E5                                    
You came out in front and I was hiding
G#5  C#5             G#5              E5                 A#5                      
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
A5               G#5           F#5               B5                           
Listen to the melody cause my love's in there hiding
F#5          G#5               A5             E5                              
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
F#5           G#5              D5                       C5        C#5  E5          
We were alone and I was singing this song, singing this song for you
