You Were There - Southern Sons

Transcribed by Jess Lai 1998

(The chords are not in the same pitch as the song.  
The song actually has a C, F, G progression.  
But I could not find a couple of the chords where 
it starts with "Or the magic in your hands...".  
So I decided to start with E instead)

     E a d g b E
  E: 0-2-2-1-0-0
  a: x-0-2-2-2-0
  b: x-2-4-4-4-2
F#m: 2-4-4-2-2-2
  C: x-3-2-0-1-0
  d: x-x-0-3-2-3

E              a     b
I guess you've heard

            E
I guess you know

                 a
In time I'd have told you 

      b               E
But I guess I'm too slow

              a
It's overly romantic 

      b              E
But I know that it's real

           a
I hope you don't mind 
 
     b           E
If I say what I feel

     a                            b
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream

a                               b  
This could not be happening to me

Chorus:

E            F#m   a
But you were there

             b               E      F#m
And you were everything I've never seen

a           b            a                  E
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep

        a
I was alone

  b                          E
I opened my eyes and you were there
	.
	.
	.

      b                          E
Can I take your smile home with me

       C             d
Or the magic in your hands
	.
	.
	.
  b                  a
I opened my eyes and no

          E
I'm not alone

              a
No, I'm not alone

  b                           E      a b E
I opened my eyes and you were there
