Lyrics

I (F)called you up, you were in (Bb)bed.

Could bare ly (F)make out the words that you (Bb)said.

But you (F)want ed to see me in (Am7)stead, so I got dressed.

Then (F)I stepped out in to the (Bb)snow,

and (F)walked for a mile or (Bb)so,

felt the (F)rush of blood come from the (Am7)cold

in my chest.

Well, you (F)fi nal ly came to the (Bb)door,

and we (F)talked for an ho ur or (Bb)more,

un til I (F)asked if you would stay up ’til (Am7)four.

You said, “That’s fine.”

But you said, (F)“There’s some thing I have to (Bb)say,

and I (F)can’t be cause I’m just so a (Bb)fraid.”

And so I (F)held you as you start ed to (Am7)shake

that night.

(Dm)Oh, my dear,

I’ll wait

for you.

(Dm)Grace to (F)night

will pull

us through.

Un til the tears have left your eyes, un til the fear can sleep at night, un til the de mons that you’re scared of

(Dm)dis ap pear in side, un til this guilt be gins to crack,

and the weight falls from your back,

oh, my dear, I’ll keep you (C)in my arms to night.

(F)Mm.

You slow ly (F)lift ed your head from you hands.

You said, “I (F)just don’t think that you’ll un der stand.

You’ll nev er (F)look at me that way a gain, if you knew what I did.”

And so your (F)tears fell and melt ed the snow.

You told me (F)se crets no bod y had known,

but I (F)nev er loved you more, e ven though now I knew what you did.

(Dm)Oh, my dear,

I’ll wait

for you.

(Dm)Grace to (Fmaj7)night

will pull

us through.

(Dm)Oh, my dear,

I’ll wait

for you.

(Dm)Grace to (Fmaj7)night

will pull

us through.

Un til the tears have left your eyes, un til the fears can sleep at night, un til the de mons that you’re scared of

(Dm)dis ap pear in side, un til this guilt be gins to crack,

and the weight falls from your back,

oh, my dear, I’ll keep you (C)in my arms ’til the tears have left your eyes, un til the fears can sleep at night, un til the de mons that you’re scared of

(Dm)dis ap pear in side, un til this guilt be gins to crack,

and the weight falls from your back,

oh, my dear, I’ll keep you (C)in my arms ’til the tears falls from your (G7)back,

oh, my dear, I’ll keep you (C)in my arms to night.

I’ll keep you in my arms

to night.
