*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Anthony John Clarke - Easy Piano
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Intro]
F C Dm7 G C
[Verse 1]
Em F G C
You left the room so quietly
Em Dm7 G C
I thought I heard you whisper, but I can't be sure
Em F G C
You spread our things so carefully
Em F G C
Some mine, some yours
[Verse 2]
Em F G C
You left the room so quietly
Em F G C
Is that you singing, or the wind outside?
Em Dm7 G
I can hear you, ah no, must be mistaken
C Em F G
It's just sometimes I think you've only slipped away to hide
[Interlude]
F C Dm7 G C
[Verse 3]
Em F G C
One more year, you said, and hey, then you'd leave him
Em F G C
Perhaps get to spend a bit more time with me
Em Dm7 G
Write that book of yours, and with luck, volunteer
C Em F G C
To keep all those little promises you promised me
[Verse 4]
Em F G C
The postman, he still asks, politely, how I'm doing
Em F G C
I'm sure I saw some junk mail with your name on, in his bag
Em Dm7 G C
And the dog still wonders, where the hell you went to
Em F G
And when her best friend's coming back
[Interlude]
F C Dm7 G C
[Verse 5]
Em F G C
And here's that book of songs for easy piano
Em F G C
The bass guitar you had no time to play
Em Dm7 G C
That little snowy globe from rainy County Sligo
Em F G C
The one when you shake it, it plays
[Verse 6]
Em F G C
A picture of the island we never got to go to
Em F G C
The tape you made for me on Christmas day
Em Dm7 G
And that little garden bird, it's still pecking at your window
C Em F G C
Ah, you should have seen the way he looked at me today
[Verse 7]
Em F G C
That book of songs for easy piano
Em F G C
The hat you bought and wore on Saturday
Em Dm7 G C
One cup, one saucer, one occasional table
Em F G
The one you occasionally tried to throw away
[Instrumental]
F C Dm7 G
C Em F G (4x)
F C Dm7 G C
[Verse 8]
Em F G C
And for all those kisses that you never got to give me
Em F G C
And all those places you never ever got to go with me
Em Dm7 G
And all those songs that you never got to sing me
C Em F G C
Even once, and all the words you never said
[Verse 9]
Em F G C
I'll keep that book of songs for easy piano
Em F G C
The bass guitar you had no time to play
Em Dm7 G C
That little snowy globe from rainy County Sligo
Em F G
I still shake it, it plays
[Outro]
F C Dm7 G C
