Intro
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Didn’t I hear you cry this morning, didn’t I feel you weep
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Teardrops flowin’ down on me, like rivers in my sleep
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
And in my dream of laughter, you came creepin’ with your fears
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Telling me your sorrows, in the tracings of your tears
A#m G# Gb G#
That’s a strange way to tell me you love me
A#m G# Gb G#
When your sorrow is all I can see
A#m G# Gb G# Gb
If you just want to cry to somebody, don’t cry to me, no
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Don’t cry to me, no
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Didn’t I hear your voice this morning, didn’t you call my name
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
I heard you whisper softly, but the words were never plain
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
And in your dream of darkness, I came shinin’ like the sun
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Waiting for the laughter, but the laughter never comes
CHORUS
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
Didn’t you feel alone this morning, didn’t you need a friend
Gb G# A#m9 Gb
And in your darkest hour, you came runnin’ back again
CHORUS
FLUTE SOLO
REFRAIN CHORUS
(Note: Ordinarily, only the top four strings are played throughout the song. The
5th and 6th strings, F and E, are not played and left silent. And, in all chord
forms throughout the song, the A# string is played, but not fretted, leaving the
open A# string to pedal throughout the song. On the Gb for example, the first
finger is placed on the first fret of the high C string, the little finger on the
third fret of the G string, and the ring finger on the third fret of the D#
string. The A# is left open. For the G# chord that follows, just move the entire
chord form up two frets, which should leave the index finger on the third fret.
The A#m9 is played like an Am, but the middle finger is lifted to leave an open G.)
