*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Tift Merritt - Something To Me
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: G
Oh, the song I love the best's, the one my father taught to me
Bm
The kindness of a stranger is dust from an unseen wing
C G
But an old friend at my table is by far the finest thing
Am D
This tired mile could give to me
G
Oh, the colours of the man I love are deepest blue and green
Bm
And it isn't very often that I say just what I mean
C G
'Cause the feeling seems to scatter and these words fall in between
Am D
For what I miss I'll just tell you this
CHORUS:
C
It's something to me
G D
It's something to me__
Em G C
I don't know what it comes to and it's not so much to see
G D
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
C
It's something to me
G
It's something to me
Gentle is the road within me and it's gently I depart
Bm
'Cause these well-worn threads of daylight will sometimes come apart
C G
Giving way to all the shadows where no one can hear your heart
Am D
So, down in the dark, if that's where you are
CHORUS:
C
It's something to me
G D
It's something to me__
Em G C
I don't know what it comes to and it's not so much to see
G D
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
C
It's something to me
G
It's something to me
INSTRUMENTAL: G Bm C G Am D
G
Now the tender hands of morning have given up a new sunrise
Bm
And we all get up together in our ordinary lives
C G
Going one step for another, giving up has crossed my mind
Am D
I'll take a long day, come 'round the right way
CHORUS:
C
It's something to me
G D
It's something to me__
Em G C
I don't know what it comes to and it's not so much to see
G D
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
C
It's something to me
G
It's something to me
D
You take tomorrow so long as you know
C
It's something to me
G
It's something to me
