Mark Erelli - Only Wondering Where You Are
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
C  F  G    C  F  G
[Verse 1]
The Csun goes down, the sun comes up
Black Ecoffee fills a paper cup
Every Fmorning it gets Fmharder to reCmember
The days all seem to C/Bpass this way
AmNothing much to Edo or say
A Fthousand shades of grey just like NoGvember
[Verse 2]
Once uCpon a time the time stood still
The Emoments they were ours to fill
Or Fdrain just like a Fmdrunkard will a Ctoast
Now I turn around and C/Bhope to see you
AmStanding where you're Esupposed to be
InFstead I find I'm followed by your Gghost
[Chorus]
I got this Fspace inside I Gjust can't seem to Cfill
Don't you Fknow sometimes it Gseems I never Amwill
I ain't Fwishing you could Gstill be by my AmsideAm/G  D7/F#  
I'm only Fwondering where you Gare toCnight
[Verse 3]
It never Cseems to rain unless it pours
And Ecatches us both out of doors
In the Fstorm it all just Fmcomes undone someChow
Still I thought we'd last unC/Btil the end
No Ammatter where we'd Egone or been
If I'd Fonly known back then what I know Gnow
[Chorus]
I got this Fspace inside I Gjust can't seem to Cfill
Don't you Fknow sometimes it Gseems I never Amwill
I ain't Fwishing you could Gstill be by my AmsideAm/G  D7/F#  
I'm only Fwondering where you Gare toCnight
[Verse 4]
Old Clovers have to say goodbye
As Enightfall darkens in the sky
The Ftears we cry can't Fmkeep the world from Cspinning
But morning always C/Bcomes again
As it Amwill for you and EI my friend
This is Fnot the end it's only a new beGginning
[Chorus]
I got this Fspace inside I Gjust can't seem to Cfill
Don't you Fknow sometimes it Gseems I never Amwill
I ain't Fwishing you could Gstill be by my AmsideAm/G  D7/F#  
I'm only Fwondering where you Gare toCnight
[Outro]

Mark Erelli - Only Wondering Where You Are

CAPO: 4th Fret

[Intro]

C F G C F G

[Verse 1]

The sun goes down, the sun comes up

Black coffee fills a paper cup

F Fm C

Every morning it gets harder to remember

The days all seem to pass this way

Am E

Nothing much to do or say

A thousand shades of grey just like November

[Verse 2]

Once upon a time the time stood still

The moments they were ours to fill

Or drain just like a drunkard will a toast

Now I turn around and hope to see you

Am E

Standing where you're supposed to be

F G

Instead I find I'm followed by your ghost

[Chorus]

F G C

I got this space inside I just can't seem to fill

F G Am

Don't you know sometimes it seems I never will

F G Am Am/G D7/F#

I ain't wishing you could still be by my side

F G C

I'm only wondering where you are tonight

[Verse 3]

It never seems to rain unless it pours

And catches us both out of doors

F Fm C

In the storm it all just comes undone somehow

C/B

Still I thought we'd last until the end

Am E

No matter where we'd gone or been

F G

If I'd only known back then what I know now

[Chorus]

F G C

I got this space inside I just can't seem to fill

F G Am

Don't you know sometimes it seems I never will

F G Am Am/G D7/F#

I ain't wishing you could still be by my side

I'm only wondering where you are tonight

Old lovers have to say goodbye

As nightfall darkens in the sky

The tears we cry can't keep the world from spinning

But morning always comes again

As it will for you and I my friend

This is not the end it's only a new beginning

[Chorus]

I got this space inside I just can't seem to fill

Don't you know sometimes it seems I never will

I'm only wondering where you are tonight
