The Way I Tend To Be(Chords)

	        



Intro: G   D   E   C  (4x)

Verse:
 
C                       G 
Some mornings I pray for evening, 
D                 C 
For the day to be done. 
C                  G 
Some summer days I hide away 
D                    C  
And pray for rain to come. 
C                      G 
It turns out hell will not be found 
D                C 
Within the fires below, 
C                     G 
But in making do and muddling through 
D                        C   E   D   D 
When you've nowhere else to go. 


C            G    D 
But then I remember you, 
        C            G                    D 
And the way you shine like truth in all you do. 
    C          G    D 
And if you remembered me, 
          C               G            D 
You could save me from the way I tend to be. 


Intro (2x) 

Verse (same as verse 1)

Some days I wake up dazed my dear, 
And I don't know where I am. 
I've been running now so long I'm scared 
I've forgotten how to stand. 
I stand alone in airport bars 
And gather thoughts to think: 
That if all I had was one long road 
It could drive a man to drink. 


C            G    D 
But then I remember you, 
        C            G                    D 
And the way you shine like truth in all you do. 
    C          G    D 
And if you remembered me, 
          C               G            D 
You could save me from the way I tend to be. 


Bridge:

Em7          D/F#   G        C             D        Em7         D/F#  
Because I've said I love you so many times that the words kinda die in my 
G 
Mouth. 
Em7            D/F#      G         C         D         Em7        D/F# 
And I meant it each time with each beautiful woman but somehow it never 
      G 
Works out. 
Em7       D/F#       G          C              D             Em7    D/F# 
You stood apart in my calloused heart, and you taught me and here's what I 
G 
Learned: 
Em7          G         C                   D        Em7 D/F#        
That love is about the all the changes you make and not just three small  
G 
words. 



C            G    D 
But then I remember you, 
        C            G                    D 
And the way you shine like truth in all you do. 
    C          G    D 
And if you remembered me, 
          C               G            D 
You could save me from the way I tend to be.
