E
sometimes I wonder how it would be
A
if we held on . if we held on
E
it worked while it was easy
until the work got too hard
A
now its long gone
yeah its long gone
B                 A
you cut just deep enough
B                             A
in my dreams you keep showing up

[Chorus]
           E    F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper
E          F#m          A
i couldn't see it at the time
            C#m    B
you gave my love a place
    F#m     A
to rest, to hide
           E     F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper



E
now and then a songs play
takes me to a time
A
turns me sideways
turns me sideways
  E
I wish it were just a song
not so tangled up
      A
in my memory with your memory

B                 A
you cut just deep enough
B                             A
in my dreams you keep showing up


           E    F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper
E          F#m          A
i couldn't see it at the time
            C#m    B
you gave my love a place
    F#m     A
to rest, to hide
           E     F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper

you cut just deep enough
B                             A
in my dreams you keep showing up


F#m                               A
we stand on opposite sides of the road
                    E
don't bother to say hello
                    B
don't bother to say goodbye


           E    F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper
E          F#m          A
i couldn't see it at the time
            C#m    B
you gave my love a place
    F#m     A
to rest, to hide
           E     F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper
           E     F#m   A
you were a nice place keeper
