Introduction:

difficulty
very easy |||||
                                  C  
I watch the Western sky
                                C  
The sun is sinking
                                        G  
The geese are flying South
                                F  
It sets me thinking
                             F  
I did not miss you much
                             G  
I did not suffer
                                     F  
What did not kill me
                                     C  
Just made me tougher
                                  C                      F  
I feel the winter come
                          C  
His icy sinews
                                G  
Now in the fire light
                                  F                 G  
The case continues
                        F  
Another night in court
                                     G  
The same old trial
                                     F                                         G  
The same old questions asked
                          C  
The same denial
                                  C                                    F  
The shadows close me round
                                C  
Like jury members
                                G  
I look for answers in
                             F                    G  
The fire's embers
                             F  
Why was I missing then
                                G  
That whole December
                          C  
I don't remember
                        Am  
Another winter comes
                        G  
His icy fingers creep
                                F  
Into these bones of mine
                                          C  
These memories never sleep
                                        G                              F  
And all these differences
                                G  
A cloak I borrow
                                     F  
We kept our distances
                                        F      G                                      C  
Why should it follow I must have loved you
Am                                                         G  
What is the force that binds the stars
F                                                    C              G  
I wore this mask to hide my scars
Am                                                         G  
What is the power that pulls the tide
F                                                      C                    G  
I never could find a place to hide
Am                                                      G  
What moves the Earth around the sun
F                                                    C              G                    F  
What could I do but run and run and run
F  
Afraid to love, afraid to fail
F                                            G  
A mast without a sail
                                        D                              A                    D  
The moon's a fingernail and slowly sinking
                        A                                                            G                 A  
Another day begins and now I'm thinking
                             G                                                    A  
That this indifference was my invention
                             G                                                            A7  
When everything I did sought your attention
                                  D                                 A  
You were my compass star
                                  D  
You were my measure
                                A  
You were a pirate's map
                             G                      A  
A buried treasure
                                  G  
If this was all correct
                                          A  
The last thing I'd expect
                          G  
The prosecution rests
                                        A7                                                            D  
It's time that I confess: I must have loved you
