Intro:
G D Em C x2
Chorus:
G D
If you were a stone then I'd be the rain
Em C
Turn you to sand as the time slips away
G D
If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
Em C
Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
Verse 1:
G D
I am a metaphor for all the things I couldn't say
Em C
It's never easy, then it hurts
G D
Like scratching diamonds I have tried to find my way to you
Em C
But we're both moving in reverse
Pre Chorus:
G D
I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by
Em C
Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
Chorus
Verse 2:ttp://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/r/ron_pope/if_you_were_a_stone.html ]
Some nights you're a photograph fading in my memory
Some days I feel you on my skin
We're trading silence
There are words that seem to steal our breath
And I just dream about your lips
Pre Chorus
Chorus
Chorus 2:
G
We'd count the stars
D
My hands in your leaves
Em C
And I'd hold my breath 'til we both fell asleep
G D
If you were a stone then I'd be the rain,
Em C
Turn you to sand as the time slips away

G
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for…
D
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for…
Em C
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you
G
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for…
D
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for…
Em C
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you
Chorus
Outro:
G D
If you were a stone then I'd be the rain,
Em C (End on C)
Turn you to sand as the time slips away
