Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

All of these grateful looks

All these grateful eyes

All the furious stares and the fretful sighs

Promising everything

To everyone

We'll be back soon

You're my favorite one

And I'll keep it quiet

I'll hold you dear

Your whisperin fills the ear

Tell me you'll stay

We would have such fun

And a lie, you don't need anyone

And the screams, the wails, and the call

The headiness of the Fall

Ten-thousand miles from where we began

I fell asleep with a picture in hand

It was all for a woman

You say that you're grateful for the time alone

Two years away and I don't miss home

And everyone asks you if you still think of her

So you smile politely and you demur

But then all at once your head starts to swell

And you can feel her breath on your skin

If I let you stay, the same spot today

She's above you, below you in ways

And you're shiverin cold

Like you're just 10 years old

And she's lying asleep in your bed

And you're standing beside her

The light from inside her

Filling up the darkness in your head

It was all for a woman

And you've drowned in the teasing

You've forgotten the reason

The muse inspired the art

You'd give anything for

Her to say them once more

The words you believed at the start

Ten-thousand miles from where it began

Falling asleep with a picture in hand

And it was all... it was all

For the look in her eyes

Of the promise of the light of a woman
