The Sweetest Tune

Darling West


Tom: Am

Am   C    G   Em


[Verse 1]

Am    C
I was struggling
       F                         G
How to figure out this world all alone
Am       C
You were looking
      F                        G
For a reason not to sing on your own


[Pre-Chorus]

Am   G            Am  G
Your sweet voice, my lost cause
Am   G        Dm                   F     G
Collided like stars burning in the sky


[Chorus]

          Dm            F           G
And for a while we were in the same song
            C            F       G
You had the chords and I played along
             Dm            F              G
The sweetest tune till the chorus faded
           Am
And it was gone


[Instrumental]

G   Am   G   Am


[Verse 2]

        C
Woke up running
F              C          G
Running out of reasons to stay
Am       C
Ain’t it funny
        F         C              G
How we ran out of things left to say


[Pre-Chorus]

Am   G              Am  G
Your cracked voice, my long pause
Am   G        Dm                        F         G
The silence revealed what you could not believe


[Chorus]

          Dm            F           G
But for a while we were in the same song
            C            F       G
You had the chords and I played along
             Dm            F              G
The sweetest tune till the chorus faded
           Am
And it was gone


[Instrumental]

Am   C   G   Em

Am   C   G   Em



[Bridge]

Am  G          Am  G
You were mine, I   was yours
Am   G          Dm                     F
What started as going to last forever
                    C                       G
Somewhere along the way turned to whatever
               Dm               F
Still it was a time to remember


[Chorus]

G         Dm            F           G
But for a while we were in the same song
            C            F       G
You had the chords and I played along
             Dm            F              G
The sweetest tune till the chorus faded
           Am
And it was gone




[Outro]

Am   C   G   Em
