      Am           Am7          Am7        Am6        
I've  been so many places in my life and time,  
     C                                       Fm5-/7  
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme,  
     F                    Em7                                 
I've acted out my life in stages.  
         Dm7              Em7  
With ten thousand people watching   
           Dm7         Em7     F                   C    E7  
But we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you.  
   Am        Am7           Am7             Am6        
I know your image of me is what I hope to be;  
     C                                       Fm5-/7  
I've treated you unkindly but baby can't you see  
        F                         Em7     Dm7                          Em7  
There's no one more important to me. Baby can't you please see through me,  
Dm7            Em7              F                     C   E7  
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you.  
    Am7                   E7               C            F#m5-/7  
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin',  
                        F          Em7    Dm7        G7  
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there,  hiding.  
 Am                 Am7               Am7        Am6    
I love you in a place where there's no space or time;  
     C              F#m5-/7             
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine,  
      F       Em7            Dm7                   Em7  
And when my life is  over, remember when we were together  
     Dm7    Em7             F                  C   E7             
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you.  
     Am7                 E7            C               F#m5-/7  
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin',  
     F           G6               C  
You came out in front and I was hiding;  
     Em7          Am7   E7          C                    F#m5-/7  
But now I'm so much better, and if my words don't come together,  
               F        Em7    Dm7        G7  
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there,  hiding.  
    Dm7             Em7            F           C  E7             
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you.  
    Dm7                      Em7       F      G#7        G7       C7M    
We were alone and I was singin' this song, singin' this song for you
