[Intro]

C Dm7 F/A F#/Bb~G/B C C9  C Am G7


[Verse]

C               Am
I guess you've heard
G7           C
I guess you know
                      Am
In time I might have told you
       G7            C
But I guess I'm too slow
              Am
It's overly romantic
       G7             C
But I know that it's real
             Am
I hope you don't mind

      G7          C
If I say what I feel


[Pre-Chorus]

       F                           G Gsus4 G
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream
       F                        G Gsus4 G
This could not be happening to me


[Chorus]

C              Dm7
But you were there
F/A           F#/Bb~G/B       C     C9 C
And you were everything I'd never seen
 Am         G7            Dm7              Em7
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep
        F6
I was alone
   Gsus4     G                  C C9 C Am G7
I opened my eyes and you were there.


[Verse]

C           Am         G7         C
Don't be alarmed, no don't be concerned.
                  Am
I don't want to change things
            G7           C
Leave them just as they were.
                           Am
I mean nothing's really different
      G7            C
It's me who feel strange.
                      Am
I'm always lost for words when
          G7
Someone mentions your name.


[Pre-Chorus]

   F                                G Gsus4 G
I know that I'll get over this for sure
     F                                      G Gsus4 G
I'm not the type who dreams there could be more.


[Chorus]

C              Dm7
But you were there
F/A           F#/Bb~G/B       C     C9 C
And you were everything I'd never seen
 Am         G7            Dm7              Em7
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep
        F6
I was alone
   Gsus4     G                  F
I opened my eyes and you were there.


[Bridge]

F       G                        C Csus4 C
Can I take your smile home with me,
F        G            Fm7 Gm7 C C9  C Am G7  (hold)
or the magic in your hair?


[Verse]

C               Am          G7         C
The rain has stopped, the storm has passed
                  Am            G7            C
Look at all the colors now the sun's here at last.
                           Am        G7             C
I suppose that you'll be leaving but I want you to know
                   Am           G7
Part of you stays with me even after you go.
         F                             G Gsus4 G
Like an actor playing someone else's scene
  F                            G Gsus4 G
This could not be happening to me.


[Chorus]

C              Dm7
But you were there
F/A           F#/Bb~G/B       C     C9 C
And you were everything I'd never seen
 Am         G7            Dm7              Em7
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep
        F6
I was alone
   Gsus4      G       Dm7
I opened my eyes and I’m,
          Em7                F6
I'm not alone, no, I'm not alone.
   Gsus4      G                 C C9  C F6/A Gsus4  G  C C9  C
I opened my eyes and you were there.
