LET ME INTO YOUR HEART (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
----------------------------------------------
[Actually in C; capo 5.]
[Each chord is two beats.]

G (320003@1)C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)C (x32010@1)  G (320003@1)C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)C[intro] (x32010@1)
              G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)    G (320003@1)     CYou're (x32010@1)like a cool breeze to a hot spell
              G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)   CYou're (x32010@1)like a long drink to a dry well
     C (x32010@1)      C (x32010@1)         C (x32010@1)      COh (x32010@1)I know by now, there's no use thinking
          G (320003@1)               C (x32010@1)   G (320003@1)         CThat (x32010@1)it's something in that water I've been drinking
        D (xx0232@1)        D (xx0232@1)      D7 (xx0212@1)       D7Cause (xx0212@1)I would not need even one more drop
         G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1)        G (320003@1)  CIf (x32010@1)you'd just let me into your heart

You're like a blue sky to a gray day
You're like a new try to an old way
Oh, I never needed much convincing
'Bout that something in my life that's been missing
But I think I know where to find that part
If you'd just let me into your heart

           C (x32010@1)       C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)     GI've (320003@1)got a past baby, now who doesn't

You're like a sweet sight to these tired eyes
You're like the first light after a long night
Oh I never believed in the hands of fate
But to be with you, baby, I believe I'd wait
Till the end of time for a chance to start
If you'd just let me into your heart
