     This song is played in 3/4 time, so each measure has 3 beats.
     I has a waltz feel.

     Verse 1
             E (022100@1)      C#m7 (x4242x@1)    As you lie in my arms
             A (x02220@1)    girl my heart on my sleeve
     E (022100@1)           C#m7 (x4242x@1)  F#m (244222@1)        B (x2444x@1)    Words come so hard in moments like these

     A (x02220@1)    caused you some tears
              E (022100@1)       C#m7 (x4242x@1)          F#m (244222@1)       B (x2444x@1)    When you needed me most, I haven't always been here
