INTRO: A
verse 1
A
I've learned a lesson
Cm
from being down at my worst
I count my blessings
D
I wouldn't say I've been cursed
It's not that easy
E
it's not that easy to start
I'm trying to tell you
it's not so hard
A (A/G#) Fm
You were just impossible to find un-
D
-til I heard you in the garden
E
Singing the saddest song
You were singing the saddest song
A (A/G#) Fm
Huddled neath the willow on a cold night
D
You were shadowed from the moonlight
E
Singing the saddest song
A
You were singing the saddest song you know
verse 2
A
Take just a second
Cm
Are you really alone?
You change directions and you find
D
You're no closer to home
If there's an answer
E
And if that answer is right
Let go, even if you don't know why
A (A/G#) Fm
You were just impossible to find un-
D
-til I heard you in the garden
E
Singing the saddest song
(E/G#)
You were singing the saddest song
A (A/G#) Fm
Huddled neath the willow on a cold night
D
You were shadowed from the moonlight
E
Singing the saddest song
You were singing the saddest song...

Standing on the edge and breaking through

Never seemed impossible to you

When you're singing the saddest song
When you're singing the saddest song
