You were full and fully capable
You were [Em] self-sufficient and [G] needless
[D] Your house [A] was fully [Em] decorated in my sense
You were [D] taken with me to a point
A case to care for what you wished for
But what he knew was here not to begin
[Dm] And so you [D] called and called it fiercely
So he reached out and typed it up
And yet you knew of reservation and how it served
And I [G] salute you for your [A] courage
And I [G] outlaw your lust [A] and fears
And I [G] embrace you for your [A] faith
In the face [G] of adverse and all [A] forces that I [D] represent
So you were young but not entirely
You were a whore of this but not totally
You knew how arms lengthening can be tamed out
So you fanned and tacked
So you dove in
You're still breathing
So you jumped
So you're still flying in the shot
[G] But you were [A] trusting
And I [D] commend you for [A] your love
And I'm [G] amazed by your [A] surrender
In the [G] face of threatening [A] forces that I [D] represent
You found creative ways to distance
You hid away from much through humor
Your choice of armor was your intellect
And so you fell, so you're still here
And so you die, you're still standing
And so you suffer, I'm still safe, be in command
I salute you [G] for your [A] courage
And I [D] outlaw your lust [A] and fears
And I [G] embrace you for your [A] faith
In the face [G] of adverse [D] and all [A] forces that I [D] represent
[C] Self-protection [Bm] was in times [G] of true [C] danger
Your best defense [Bm] to mistrust and be wary
[Am]
Surrendering a [G] feat of unequaled measure
[D] And I'm thrilled to let you be
Overjoyed to be
Let in, let in
[G] I salute you for [A] your courage
And I [G] commend you for your [A] [G] courage
I embrace you [D] for your [A] faith
In the face [G] of adverse and all [A] forces
And I [G] support you in [A] your trusting
And I [G] outlaw your lust [A] and fears
And I'm [G] amazed [D] by your [A] surrender
In the [G] face of threatening [D] [A] forces that I [D] represent
[A] [D]
[A] You're [D] still [A] [E] here
