[Intro] (freely)
| E | % | % | % |
This one, this one, this one ...
[Verse]
Did I Aever take you in my F#marms
Look you in the C#meye, tell you that I Ddo?
Did I Aever open up my Eheart
Em | A | % |
Let you look inside?
[Chorus]
If I never Bmdid it,E I was only Awaiting F#m7
For a better BmmomentE that didn’t Acome
There never Bmcould beE a better Amoment F#m7
Than B5this Eone, this Aone
The swan is gBmlidingE above the Aocean F#m7
A God is BmridingE upon his Aback
How calm the BmwaterE and bright the Arainbow F#m7
Fade B5this Eone to Ablack
[Verse]
Did I Aever touch you on the F#mcheek
Say that you were C#mmine, thank you for the Dsmile?
Did I Aever knock upon your Edoor
Em | A | % |
Try to get inside?
[Chorus]
If I never Bmdid it,E I was only Awaiting F#m7
For a better BmmomentE that didn’t Acome
There never Bmcould beE a better Amoment F#m7
Than B5this Eone, this Aone
The swan is gBmlidingE above the Aocean F#m7
A God is BmridingE upon his Aback
How calm the BmwaterE and bright the Arainbow F#m7
Fade B5this Eone to Ablack
[Middle 8]
D What opporEtunities did Awe allow to F#mflow by
GFeeling like the Emtiming wasn’t Aquite right?
D What kind of Emagic might have Aworked if we had F#mstayed calm
G | E | % | % |
Couldn’t I have given you a better life? (break)
