[Verse 1]
Dm                               A7/C#
  I've been so many places in my life and time
Dm/C                                          Bm7b5
     I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
     Bbmaj7               Am7         Gm7                 Am7
I've acted out my life in stages with ten thousand people watching
Dm                 F/C
   But we're alone now
                Bb/C          F  A7/C#
And I'm singing this song for you
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dm                                  A7/C#
  I know your image of me is what I hope to be
Dm/C                                   Bm7b5
     I’ve treated you unkindly but darling can't you see
        Bbmaj7                Am7
There's no one more important to me
Gm7                          Am7
Darling can't you please see through me
Bb                   F/C
   Cause we're alone now
                Bb/C          F
And I'm singing this song for you
 
 
[Verse 3]
C/E     Dm                 Dm/C#
    You taught me precious secrets
       Dm/C               Bm7b5
of the Truth, withholding nothin’
Bbmaj7               Bb/C             F        F/E
     You came out in front when I was hiding
    Dm              Dm/C#
But now I'm so much better
          Dm/C               Bm7b5
and if my words don't come together
Bb                     Am7
Listen to the melody     
         G7sus   G7       Bb/C
cause my love is in there hiding  
             Gm7                Bm7b5 Bb  A7
ooo ooo ooo  ooo  ooo  ooo ooo  ooo   ooo oooo
 
[Chorus]
  Dm                                   A7/C#
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
  Dm/C                          Bm7b5
I love you for my life you're a friend of mine
    Bbmaj7          Am7
And when my life is over
  Gm7                   Am7
Remember when we were together
Bb
  we were alone
F/C               Bb/C          F
And I was singing this song for you
