You Were There - Southern Sons

Transcribed by Jess Lai 1998

(The chords are not in the same pitch as the song.  The song actually has a C, F, G progression.  But I could not find a couple of the chords where it starts with "Or the magic in your hands...".  So I decided to start with E instead)

     E a d g b e
  E: 0-2-2-1-0-0
  A: x-0-2-2-2-0
  B: x-2-4-4-4-2
F#m: 2-4-4-2-2-2
  C: x-3-2-0-1-0
  D: x-x-0-3-2-3

E              A     B
I guess you've heard

            E
I guess you know

                 A
In time I'd have told you 

      B               E
But I guess I'm too slow

              A
It's overly romantic 

      B              E
But I know that it's real

           A
I hope you don't mind 
 
     B           E
If I say what I feel

     A                            B
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream

A                               B  
This could not be happening to me

Chorus:

E            F#m   A
But you were there

             B               E      F#m
And you were everything I've never seen

A           B            A                  E
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep

        A
I was alone

  B                          E
I opened my eyes and you were there
	.
	.
	.

      B                          E
Can I take your smile home with me

       C             D
Or the magic in your hands
	.
	.
	.
  B                  A
I opened my eyes and no

          E
I'm not alone

              A
No, I'm not alone

  B                           E      A B E
I opened my eyes and you were there
