C 
I watch the Western sky 
            C 
The sun is sinking 
               G 
The geese are flying South 
            F 
It sets me thinking 

           F 
I did not miss you much 
           G 
I did not suffer 
              F 
What did not kill me 
              C 
Just made me tougher 

             C         F 
I feel the winter come 
          C 
His icy sinews 
            G 
Now in the fire light 
             F       G   
The case continues 
         F 
Another night in court 
              G 
The same old trial 
              F                G 
The same old questions asked 
          C 
The same denial 

             C              F 
The shadows close me round 
            C 
Like jury members 
            G 
I look for answers in 
           F        G 
The fire's embers 
           F 
Why was I missing then 
            G 
That whole December 
           F          G 
I give my usual lie: 
          C 
I don't remember 

         Am 
Another winter comes 
         G 
His icy fingers creep 
            F 
Into these bones of mine 
                C 
These memories never sleep 
               G            F 
And all these differences 
            G 
A cloak I borrow 
              F 
We kept our distances 
               F   G               C 
Why should it follow I must have loved you 

Am                      G 
What is the force that binds the stars 
F                    C      G 
I wore this mask to hide my scars 
Am                      G 
What is the power that pulls the tide 
F                     C        G 
I never could find a place to hide 
Am                     G 
What moves the Earth around the sun 
F                    C      G        F 
What could I do but run and run and run 
F 
Afraid to love, afraid to fail 
F                 G 
A mast without a sail 

               D            A        D 
The moon's a fingernail and slowly sinking 
         A                       G       A 
Another day begins and now I'm thinking 
           G                    A 
That this indifference was my invention 
           G                       A7 
When everything I did sought your attention 

             D             A 
You were my compass star 
             D 
You were my measure 
            A 
You were a pirate's map 
           G         A 
A buried treasure 
             G 
If this was all correct 
                A 
The last thing I'd expect 
          G 
The prosecution rests 
               A7                       D 
It's time that I confess: I must have loved you 

G  A  A7  D
