Standard (EADGBE)
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
And taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright light turns to night
Until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
Chorus 1
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
What others just dream of
Others only read of the love that I love
See I'm all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive
Chorus 2
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now oh love love
Bridge 1
Now you and I, you and I
Not so little you and I anymore
And with this silence brings a moral story
more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy
Chorus 3
you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see me now
well I'm almost finally out of
Finally out of etc... ad lib
Bridge 2
(half tempo slow)
and it's okay if you have go away
just remember the telephones they working both ways
and if I never ever hear it ring
(regular tempo)
if nothing else I'll think the bells inside
have finally found you someone else and that's okay
cause I'll remember everything you sang
Chorus 3
you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well I'm almost finally out of words.
Finally out of... etc ad lib
