G D Am C D Em C G
VERSE
I got this Gpicture here inside my head
Of you one morning Dearly Cyou were still asleep in bed
The dog was snoring as I Amleft to catch a plane
And I Csaw your hair band laying there
I took it Dwith me
I remeGmber how you looked in love
Like angels touched Dyour face
There's Cnothing you couldn't rise above
You found my hiding place
You Amturned me to the sun
When you Cpulled the thread I came undone
I heard Dyou say
CHORUS
GLet Dme Amin
CWhy don't Dyou Emlet Cme GinD  
GI DBe-Amgin
CWhy won't Dyou Emlet Cme GinD  
VERSE
Now those Gmemories all hold on to me
Like pages Dfrom a Cbook I wasn't meant to see
A rock of ages fall to Ampieces in my hands
As the Cring slips off your finger,(when I)I run to catch itD  
And tonGight I'm laying next to you, I hear you breathing
DThere's so Cmuch to say but words are few, farewell to Eden
DNow I'm Amstanding at the gate
I'm on the Coutside and I'm looking in
Can you hear me?D  
CHORUS
GLet Dme Amin
CWhy don't Dyou Emlet Cme GinD  
I Gtouch Dyour Amskin
CWhy won't Dyou Emlet Cme GinD  
BRIDGE 
   EmI caused Cthe flood Gbut I still Dlet you drown
   EmYou're in Cmy blood GGod knows I Dwon't back down
   EmWithout Cyour love Gthe world Dwon't turn around
CHORUS
ALet Eme Bmin
DWhy won't Eyou F#mlet Dme AinE  
AI Ebe-Bmgin
DWhere Eyou F#mlet Dme AinE  
ALet Eme Bmin
DWhy won't Eyou F#mlet Dme AinE  
I Awon't Egive Bmin

BI sure hope this girl's in love
EI sure hope this girl's in love

I got this picture here inside my head

Of you one morning early you were still asleep in bed

The dog was snoring as I left to catch a plane

And I saw your hair band laying there

I took it with me

Like angels touched your face

There's nothing you couldn't rise above

You found my hiding place

You turned me to the sun

When you pulled the thread I came undone

I heard you say

Like pages from a book I wasn't meant to see

A rock of ages fall to pieces in my hands

And tonight I'm laying next to you, I hear you breathing

There's so much to say but words are few, farewell to Eden

I'm on the outside and I'm looking in

Can you hear me?
