Chords for Daniel Romano's beautiful track "She Was The World To Me" from his 2010
album "Workin' For The Music Man"
Worked the chords out by ear so they might not be completely correct but they sound fairly good.
The chord pattern is the same throughout and the picking style is easy enough to work out.
Enjoy!
She Was The World To Me
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
G
[Verse]
Am C/B C
She came from her palace grand
C G
She came to my cottage door
Am C/B C
Her words were few but her looks
C G C G C G
Will linger for evermore
Am C/B C
The look in her sad dark eyes
C G
More tender than words could be.
[Chorus]
Dm C Am C/B C
Oh but I was nothing to her
C G C G C G
And she was the world to me.
G
[Verse]
Am C/B C
And now in her garden she stands
C G
All dressed in fine satin and lace
Am C/B C
My lady so cold and so strange
C G C G C G
Who finds in her heart no place.
Am C/B C
And I knew she would be my bride
C G
With a kiss for a lifetime fee.
[Chorus]
Dm C Am C/B C
Oh but I was nothing to her
C G C G C G
And she was the world to me.
G
[Verse]
Am C/B C
Now in her palace grand
C G
On a flower covered bed she lies
Am C/B C
Her beautiful lids are closed
C G C G C G
Over her sad dark eyes.
Am C/B C
And among the mourners who mourn
C G
Why should I a mourner be.
[Chorus]
Dm C Am C/B C
When I was nothing to her
C G C G C G
And she was the world to me.
G
[Verse]
Am C/B C
And how will it be with our souls
C G
When we meet in that spirit land
Am C/B C
What the human heart never knows
C G C G C G
Will a spirit understand
Am C/B C
Or in some celestial form
C G
Will our sorrows repeated be
[Chorus]
Dm C Am C/B C
Will I still be nothing to her
C G C G C G
And she was the world to me..
End on G
