All chords and frets relative to capo.

Intro: C5 C5 C5 F5 G5

               C5
All of these grateful looks
                 C5
All these grateful eyes
      F5                       G5
All the furious stares and the fretful sighs
          C5             
Promising everything
   C5
To everyone
      F5
We'll be back soon
           G5
You're my favorite one

                  C5
And I'll keep it quiet
               C5
I'll hold you dear
       F5                 G5
Your whisperin fills the ear

               C5
Tell me you'll stay
                   C5
We would have such fun
       F5                       G5
And a lie, you don't need anyone

           F5                         G5
And the screams, the wails, and the call
     C5     C5       C5
The headiness of the Fall
              F5                   G5
Ten-thousand miles from where we began
          C5           C5        C5
I fell asleep with a picture in hand
       F5 G5              C5
It was all       for a woman

      C5                            C5
You say that you're grateful for the time alone
     F5                G5
Two years away and I don't miss home
             C5                      C5      
And everyone asks you if you still think of her
    F5                      G5
So you smile politely and you demur


            C5                        C5
But then all at once your head starts to swell
             F5                        G5
And you can feel her breath on your skin
               C5                   C5
If I let you stay, the same spot today
       F5                       G5
She's above you, below you in ways


             F5
And you're shiverin cold
             G5
Like you're just 10 years old
           C5      C5          C5
And she's lying asleep in your bed

             F5  
And you're standing beside her
     G5
The light from inside her
        C5       C5              C5
Filling up the darkness in your head
       F5  G5            C5
It was all      for a woman


             F5
And you've drowned in the teasing
           G5
You've forgotten the reason
     C5      C5       C5
The muse inspired the art
           F5
You'd give anything for
        G5
Her to say them once more
     C5           C5           C5
The words you believed at the start
              F5                     G5
Ten-thousand miles from where it began
          C5           C5         C5
Falling asleep with a picture in hand
           F5             G5
And it was all... it was all
         C5   C5    C5
For the look in her eyes
         F5             G5             C5
Of the promise of the light    of a woman
