Em C G D G
 
[Verse 1]
          G
Where the earth shows its bones of wind-broken stone,
        D
And the sea and sky are one,
    Am                  C
I'm all out of time, my blood sings with wine,
        D
And I'm running naked in the sun;
        G
There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees,
        D
And the sky is a painful blue;
    Am                        C            D      G
I'd like to look around, but, honey, all I see is you.

[Verse 2]
          G
Well, the summer city lights will soften the night
         D
Till you think that the air is clear,
    Am                         C
I'm sitting with friends where forty-five cents
     D
Will buy another glass of beer;
             G
He's got something to say, but I'm so far away
       D
That I don't know who I'm talking to,
       Am                                C            D      G
'Cause you just walked in the door, and, honey, all I see is you.
 
[Chorus]
      C
And I just want to hold you closer than,
          G       C     G
I've ever held anyone before;
               C                     G
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life,
         Am                        D
Ah, but, honey, what the hell's it for?
C
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find a way
G          C         G
To let you know, somehow,
  Am
I wanna see your smiling face
D                     G
Forty-five years from now.

[Verse 3]
Well, alone in the lights on stage every night,
              D
I've been reaching out to find a friend
    Am                  C
Who knows all the words and sings so she's heard,
    D
And knows how all the stories end;
       G
Maybe, after the show, she'll ask me
           D
To go home with her for a drink or two;
        Am                     C                 D      G
Now her smile lights her eyes, but, honey, all I see is you.

[Chorus]
      C
And I just want to hold you closer than,
          G       C     G
I've ever held anyone before;
               C                     G
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life,
         Am                        D
Ah, but, honey, what the hell's it for?
C
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find a way
G          C         G
To let you know, somehow,
  Am
I wanna see your smiling face
D                     G
Forty-five years from now.

You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life,
         Am                        D
Ah, but, honey, what the hell's it for?
