Introdução:
E
I would have been here sooner
F#
Your note came yesterday
A
But, yesterday was crazy
F#m B
There was much to square away
E
Then I tried to come this morning
G#m
But the old car wouldn't run
A
And the buses run so slowly
F#m B
There was nothing to be done
E
But you, you don't need my troubles
F#
I'm here now, anyway
A
And there's nothing left behind me
F#m7 B
To say I cannot stay
E
When I told you that I love you
G#m7
I said' "Call me anytime
A
And especially when you need someone
F#m7 B7
When things get out of line
E
And oh, there's a burning in your eyes
A
And the hand you put in mine won't stop trembling
F#m
Oh, tell me what you're going through
B E
Cause all I want to do is be protecting
No! All those shadows on your face
E7 A
They look so out of place, they should be sunlight
E
I want to take you when the smile returns
F# F#7
And keep you from the night
A B E
And wake up to see me in your eyes
E
I don't know how we happened
F#
When we're kept so far apart
A
There sure are lots worse prisons
F#m B
Than the kind with iron bars
E
And it almost makes me crazy
G#m
To see you hurt inside
A
When you're beautiful and really need
F#m B
To let things open wide
E
And oh, there's a burning in your eyes
A
And the hand you put in mine won't stop trembling
F#m
Oh, tell me what you're going through
B E
Cause all I want to do is be protecting
No! All those shadows on your face
E7 A
They look so out of place, they should be sunlight
E
I want to take you when the smile returns
F# F#7
And keep you from the night
A B E
And wake up to see me in your eyes
