How can you ask me how have I been,

I think that you should know well the shape
that I'm in.
C

You say that you wondered if I was O.K.,

well that's a damn fool thing to say.

The water is risin', the water is wide,

And then comes the moment, I wake before

And you seem so surprised that I'm feelin'

and I watched the sun set off for business
west somewhere
[Am]
[F] [C]

While the sky turned watercolor pink and
gold en blue
[Am]
[F]
[C] [G]
and the stars all showed up one by one and
we waited for the moon
[Am]
[F] [C]
[F]
and I thought 'bout you and I wondered why
it took so long to say goodbye
[C]
[F] [C]
[F]
You shined so bright you blinded me and
left so I couldn't see.
Chorus:
[C] [F]

I was the moon chasing the sun
[C] [F]
[C] [G]
there was never a prayer of ever catching
up

No matter how fast I would run like the
moon chasing the sun
[C] [F] [G]
Just like the moon chasing the sun

The crickets called and the moon peeked
out of an eastern sky
[C]
[F] [G]
They both start up about this time each
night
[Am]
[F]
[C] [G]
And an evening breeze stopped by and brought
some sweet relief
[Am]
[F] [C]
[G]
in the silver light I finally let go of
the heat
[Am]
[F]
and I thought 'bout you and I wondered why

it took so long for you to say goodbye

[F] [C]

you shined so bright you blinded me and

there's a pilot with her wings on fire

I try to lock it all in, push it all down

You're afraid of what you'll find, if you
get too close.

You imagine I don't care, you
see walls that just aren't there.

You think I'm too strong to let you in,

I'm not so tough, I'll call your bluff,

that wants you here and cries real tears
and needs someone to love,

Ok, here comes a little diddy:
When the guitar plays this last four (4)
chords, another guitar plays:
E - - 7|
B - 5 -|
G 6 - -|
D - - -|
A - - -|
E - - -|
But you'll have to listen to the song to get it, really.
C#m A
C#m
I know that you've been hurt before, well
so have I, what can you do,
A B
That doesn't mean you close the door, so
stop blamin' me, I don't blame you,
A B
A B
I'm not some ghost from your past, the one
who tore your heart in half,
A
I'm not her, it's not my fault, you're holding
on to that.

again...

Then:
C#m/C#m/A/A/C#m/C#m/A/A/ and repeating all
over in a fade with:

B - - - - -|- - - - -| Anyway mainly this
riff, it's one

EXTRA
D - - - - -|- - - - -| actually... But -hey-
it sounds good,
A - - - - -|- - - - -| so who cares? :)

Ilse plays the chords this way (capo on 2nd string):
C#m| A| E | B|
E |4|5|4|2|
B |5|2|5|4|
G |6|2|4|4|
D |6|2|2|4|
A |4|4|2|2|
E |4|5|X|2|
But for the advanced people you can, in my opinion, take the chords this way:
C#m| A| E | B|
E |4|5|0|7|
B |5|5|0|7|
G |6|6|1|8|
D |6|7|2|9|
A |4|7|2|9|

is the loneliest sound that I"ve heard

how can we find forgiveness

if we can't find the words
CHORUS:
[C]
when we don't talk

when we don't speak

when we don't share all the feelings

that are buried so deep

how can we know
[Am]
[F] [C][G]
what's hidden behind these walls
[C]
when the door's locked
[Am]
when we lose touch
[F]
[C]??
when you and I lose sight of us
[F]??
[G]
the honesty's lost and the tears say it
all
[C]
when we don't talk
[G]
[C]
when so much goes unspoken
[G]

and sorry is left unsaid
[G]

the silence remains unbroken

and our hearts are breaking instead

your love somehow, someway

something in me believed

you are the reason I waited so patiently

[G]
so many nights when I closed my eyes
[C]
[F]
it's you that I have seen
[Am]
[F] [G] [C]
I am the dreamer, you are the dream
[C]
[Am]
it wasn't always clear to see

where I was headed to

but of all life's roads somehow I chose

the one that led to you

I can't see into the future

I don't see the danger in the night

When I hear the siren wailing

I know that there is trouble

and there are battles yet to fight
[G]
'cause I may not have all the answers

I wouldn't have it any other way

there's an innerpeace I'm seeking
[G]
there's a lightness in my soul

and everytime I think I found it
[A]
I want to touch it, feel it, hold

And the day that I stop asking

is the day I'll say goobye

I may not have all the answers

I wouldn't have it any other way

No, I may not have all the answers, no

I wouldn't have it any other way

I've asked the good Lord Jesus
I'm asking Alah too

and I tried the great God Buddah
and now I'm asking you
[G]
'cause I may not have all the answers
[A]
[D]
I wouldn't have it any other way
[D]
When you're deep in troubled water
[G]
you've got to fight for every breath
[Em]
and you feel you're getting weaker
[A]
you're facing life you're facing death
[D]
and if you have a God to turn to
[G]
oh don't turn the other way
[Em]
or a friend that you can call on
[G]?
[A]?
just a prayer that you can say
[G]
I may not have all the answers

I wouldn't have it any other way
