Capo 6
F        G        F        G
FPatti wasn't noticing, she Gnoticed and she fell. 
She watched Fmountains rise from poetry, she dGid not climb she knelt. 
FKnelt down when she recognized her Gkiss could not be earned. 
And that Fknowledge brought her kindness and Ghumility to learn.
 AmI feel the bCeauty that you bFring, aAmnd Git .C.. it stirs my hGeart, it makes me sFing. Am  G  
 CI sing a sGong that's always beFen, AmalwaGys beFen, na na na na na na na   Gna na na always beeFn,
na na na na na na na  Gna na na na na na na
FRobert was a universe, cGomplete and incomplete. 
He wore FSaturn's rings and cosmic things, Gvibrant as the stream. 
FPhotographs formed in his mind bGefore the camera clicked. 
He gave Flife to those around him, even tGhough he got so sick.
 AmI hear the sCtory that you teFll, Amand Git .C.. it gives me sGtrength, it makes me wFell. Am  G  
 CIt lets me kGnow we've always beFen, AmalwaGys beFen. na na na na na na na   Gna na na always beeFn,
na na na na na na na  Gna na na always beeFn na na na beeeeGn beeeeeeeeeeeFn beeeeeeeeeenC  
COh baby, let go of your pain. Come on, give it all to me. [x2]
FLeaning off the window ledge she sGways and shuts her eyes, 
dreaFming of the last words Robert saGid before he died. 
FTell our story Patti, you're the onlGy one who can. 
She steps Fout into his emptiness by pGicking up the pen.
 AmOurs is a loCve that will not bFreak, Amit juGst .C.. goes out like riGpples on a lFake. Am  G  
 CWhat's set in Gmotion has no eFnd,    Am    G   Cwhat has no eGnd has always beFen. AmAlwaGys beFen. na na na na na na na G

COh baby, let go of your pain. Come on, give it all to me. [x8]
Notes:
I recommend adding some finger picking accents where you hear the distinct piano notes.
Hopefully this simple version works ok for you, played alongside the album cut it sounds pretty good to me.
Played open (no capo) the chords (in order of appearance) are B, Db, Ebm and F#.
