You're a friend to me, you told me all that was on your mind
[E]
And it meant [F] so much to me from the beginning
How it [D] was so kindred-spirited to me
I think of you sometimes in the early morning
As I dressed [F#] and made a plane before the [F] cab came
I let you down, I had the most to give
I [Em] _ let you down, but you were [B] good [Em] to forgive
You [F] wanted to help me, _ you wanted to sit and talk [Dm] for hours
But I [Em] wanted power

[G] [D] I tried words, I tried feelings
I tried close my eyes, believe
And I tried being all on my side
I tried [Em] being [F] unkind, [Fm] I tried responsibility
I expressed [Em] myself proudly, I grew up blindly
With my whole [D] heart in it
But there was no conduit, there was no sure way to it
I thought that I'd [C] blown it, [F] the further I got
The stranger it was to win it, I [Em] could not have it
But still I searched from sheer force of habit
[F] I thought I was descending some strange inverted tower
_ Looking [Em] for my power

[D] wanted permission, I wanted [C] expedition
I wanted to [F] have a way to go around
[Am] For you to look up [G] when I found [D] something so beautiful
I could tell you [C] somehow, I never have to shout
[F] And listen to my note, [Am] how all the [Em] love, all of the [D] louse
I felt so clumsy and [C] plain
I was filled with so [Em] much shame
Just trying [F] to see, to see, to see
[Am] The call out and it [G] blew by me
[D] Every line felt little
Every swoon [C] a stone was blown
By the new [F] and rainy day
And I never could [Am] forget it, [Em] as you forgot it
[F] I wanted to set it all down
So [Dm] it would open to you like a flower
It's our [Am] only power _

sleep [G] on the plane
[D] And I woke up strange
In _ _ [G] the clear blue [Em] sea
An hour [F] gone by
The sun was rising again
Keeping distant [Em] over the black and blue [C] above the sky
I [F] spent my whole life thinking
That I was some kind of coward
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _
