What We Were
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
[Am] I donaa‚¬a„¢t think I [F] even re[C]member her [G] name
[Am] but I know the [F] exact shade of her [C] wooden bed[G]frame.
[C] I donaa‚¬a„¢t re[G]call much of [F] what she [G7] said
[Am] but her tender [F] lilting voice took [C] harbor in my [G] head.
[F] Yes at times I [C] wonder [G7] where she [Am] is
[F] and what if I [C] didnaa‚¬a„¢t leave and [G] what she [Am] says
about [G] what we were
about [C] what we were
And [G] yes sometimes I [G7] think about [C] her
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
I never told her how beautiful she was
I was too afraid to share myself and all my flaws
But I could see how she felt about me
I saw her soul in her clear blue eyes, more vivid than the sea
Chorus
Verse Break
I can see the sun through her morning window
across that wet tobacco field the wind would blow
The smell of her hair and her soft dulcet skin
Calmed and soothed my rough and squally waters within
Chorus
