---A beautiful and haunting song about the loss of someone dearly loved and missed---
[Capo on 1st fret]
Verse 1
C G D G
time has a different meaning now
C G D
since you found your scarlet wings
C G D Em
forever seems like yesterday
C D
but only angels know these things
(same chords as first stanza)
C G D G
i can hear your voice sometimes at night
C G D
and it echoes through the day
C G D Em
when my soul cries out from missing you
C D
i remember what you'd say
Chorus
G D
as long you love
C G
you will see me in the stars
C G
as you look up at the stars
D
i will be there
G D
as long as you love
C G
i will whisper in your ear
C G D C
little whispers you will hear
C
as long as you love
G
as long as you love
Verse 2 (same as Verse 1)
C G D G
you are standing here beside me now
C G D
as i watch the children play
C G D Em
to those of us you left behind
C D
you are never far away
C G D G
even heaven cannot hold your heart
C G D
for no boundaries love allows
C G D Em
so little angel, spread those scarlet wings
C D
as you whisper to me now
Chorus
G D
as long as you love
C G
you will feel me in the sun
C G
in the warming of the sun
D
i will be there
G D
as long as you love
C G
you will understand the rain
C G D C
you must bless the falling rain
C
as long as you love
[instrumental break] not exact, but fits nicely, strum consistent with flow of verses
G D C G D Em
Chorus
G D
as long as you love
C G
you will see me in the stars
C G
as you look up at the stars
D
i will be there
G D
as long as you love
C G
i will whisper in your ear
C G D C
little whispers you will hear
C
as long as you love
G
as long as you love
