[Intro]
C
I watch the Western sky
C
The sun is sinking
G
The geese are flying South
F
It sets me thinking
F
I did not miss you much
G
I did not suffer
F
What did not kill me
C
Just made me tougher
C F
I feel the winter come
C
His icy sinews
G
Now in the fire light
F G
The case continues
F
Another night in court
G
The same old trial
F G
The same old questions asked
C
The same denial
C F
The shadows close me round
C
Like jury members
G
I look for answers in
F G
The fire's embers
F
Why was I missing then
G
That whole December
F G
I give my usual lie:
C
I don't remember
[Verse]
Am
Another winter comes
G
His icy fingers creep
F
Into these bones of mine
C
These memories never sleep
G F
And all these differences
G
A cloak I borrow
F
We kept our distances
F G C
Why should it follow I must have loved you
[Bridge]
Am G
What is the force that binds the stars
F C G
I wore this mask to hide my scars
Am G
What is the power that pulls the tide
F C G
I never could find a place to hide
Am G
What moves the Earth around the sun
F C G F
What could I do but run and run and run
F
Afraid to love, afraid to fail
F G
A mast without a sail
[Verse]
D A D
The moon's a fingernail and slowly sinking
A G A
Another day begins and now I'm thinking
G A
That this indifference was my invention
G A7
When everything I did sought your attention
D A
You were my compass star
D
You were my measure
A
You were a pirate's map
G A
A buried treasure
G
If this was all correct
A
The last thing I'd expect
G
The prosecution rests
A7 D
It's time that I confess: I must have loved you
G A A7 D
