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
