You Were Meant for Me Off the album Pieces of YOU Recorded by by Jewel Kilcher Written by Jewel KIlcher Transcribed by Jonathan Muise(muise@student.umass.edu) and (Cooper@aol.com) This song is quite beautiful. Jewel varies this throughout the song so my advice is to be a little loose about playing it. here’s a list of the chords and their voicings: A(sus4) C(Add9) D Em G D(inversion) Bm 002230 032030 000232 022000 320000 2002000 024432 Main Part of Song: I hear the clock...
