Hey, this is my first tab of the beautiful
song of Matt Simons. I only could find the
chords of the song where he sang with the
dutch singer Marco Borsato. So this is the
version where only Matt Sings in English.

[Verse 1]
Em D G
I walked into the bedroom
Em D G
On a rainy afternoon
Am G C
And I heard her say to me
Em D G C
Not a moment too soon
Em D G
She said child don't you worry
Em D G
I will always be with you
Am G C
From the way she'd looked at me
Em D G F
I believed it to be true when she said
C
When she said
[Chorus]
Am
I'm ready to close my eyes
G C
Steady and hold tight
Em
I'm gonna be crossing over
D
To heaven and the great divide and I
Am
I'm ready to close my eyes
G C
Heavy and so wide
Em
I can feel it put me under
D
Steady as the rising tide
Am
Take me to the water
G C D
By the road that leads you down
Em D G
And lay me down
[Instrumental]

She gave all that she could give
Am G C
And i felt her leaving me
