Intro	Em/Em/C/D x2


C (x32010@1)                  DLord, (xx0232@1)I miss that girl

G (320003@1)                    C (x32010@1)	
On the day we met the sun was shining down

C (x32010@1)              DDown (xx0232@1)on the valley

              G (320003@1)
Riddled with horses running

CCrushing (x32010@1)them with flowers

C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)        GI (320003@1)would have picked for her

         COn (x32010@1)the day she was born

C (x32010@1)                 D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)          
She runs through my veins like a long black river

       CAnd (x32010@1)rattles my cage like a thunderstorm

C (x32010@1)     DOh (xx0232@1)my soul



EmWhat (022000@1)does it mean?

                CWhat (x32010@1)does it mean?

             D (xx0232@1)           EmWhat (022000@1)does it mean to be so sad?

EmWhen (022000@1)someone you love

            C (x32010@1)                 DSomeone (xx0232@1)you love is supposed to make you happy


What do you do

                           G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cadd9/D
When it won't

C (x32010@1)                DWhat, (xx0232@1)what are the words

     G (320003@1)           CThey (x32010@1)use when they know it's over

C (x32010@1)          D"We (xx0232@1)need to talk," or

         G (320003@1)                  C"I'm (x32010@1)confused, maybe later you can come over"

C (x32010@1)        D (xx0232@1)        GI (320003@1)would've held your mother's hand

        COn (x32010@1)the day you was born

C (x32010@1)                  DShe (xx0232@1)runs through my veins

           G (320003@1)              CLike (x32010@1)a long black river and rattles my cage


Like a thunderstorm

C (x32010@1)      DOh, (xx0232@1)my soul

EmWhat (022000@1)does it mean?

              CWhat (x32010@1)does it mean?

             D (xx0232@1)            EmWhat (022000@1)does it mean to be so sad?

EmWhen (022000@1)someone you love

            C (x32010@1)                 DSomeone (xx0232@1)you love is supposed to make you happy


What do you do


                        G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
When it won't

G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cad9/D/Cadd9 (however many times you want)

End on G
