G    Am - G    C    C 
{intro} 
 
              F        F       G         C - G 
I can see you turn away when I ask what for 
                 F        F    G        C - G 
You say it isn't anything, but I'm not sure 
               F             F      G        C - G 
Something underneath the skin won't let you be 
               F          F    G - F   C 
And you try to keep it in, but I  can see 
 
    G - Am - G/B - C   C                     F        C 
The wo - man  be   -  fore me must have been hard on you 
            F             C            G          G 
'Cause that hurt in your eyes, I never put you through 
G - Am - G/B - C   C            F        C 
Sometimes  I  think you must be talking to 
    G        Am  -  G    C   C 
The woman before me and you 
 
Sometimes in an argument, it will show 
When you go a little farther than you meant to go 
I know you don't mean the things that you say 
I just wanna ease the pain that's in your way 
 
But the woman before me must have been hard on you 
'Cause that hurt in your eyes, I never put you through 
Sometimes I think you must be talking to 
The woman before me and you 
 
Am            G   -  F      C           F 
If there are sorrows that bring back a tear 
Am              G   -   F   C   C 
Don't let them keep us apart 
Am           G    -    F    C          F 
You oughta know you've got nothing to fear 
Am          G    G 
Here in my heart 
 
'Cause you and I will never be like the past 
Whatever kind of memories that you have 
Nothing's gonna hurt me how, can't you see 
I already made it a vow that I can keep 
 
But the woman before me must have been hard on you 
'Cause that hurt in your eyes, I never put you through 
Sometimes I think you must be talking to 
The woman before me and you 
Sometimes I think you must be talking to 
    G        Am -  G     C - G7sus  C. 
The woman before me and you
