Oh My Dear by Tenth Avenue North

***CAPO 1***

    E                       A
I called you up, you were in bed
               E                        A
Could barely make out the words that you said
         E                   G#m
But you wanted to see me instead
           A
So I got dressed
        E                   A
And I stepped out into the snow
     E                  A
And walked for a mile or so
          E                         G#m             A
Felt the rush of blood come from the cold, in my chest


          E                    A
Well you finally came to the door
        E                     A
And we talked for an hour or more
          E                           G#m
Until I asked if you would stay up till four
               A
You said that's fine
         E                                A   
But you said there's something I have to say
       E                           A
And I can't because I'm just so afraid
          E                          G#m          A 
And so I held you as you started to shake, that night


C#m    E
Oh my dear
A            A2
I will wait for you
C#m      E          A        A2
Grace tonight, will pull us through

           E                    A
Until the tears have left your eyes
           E                  A
Until the fear can sleep at night
            E                   A         C#m 
Until the demons that you're scared of, disappear inside
             E               A
Until this guilt begins to crack
          E                     A
And the weight falls from your back
C#m
Oh my dear
A2                           E
I'll keep you in my arms tonight


            E                         A
You slowly lifted your head from your hands
            E                               A
You said "I just don't think that youll understand
             E                    G#m                       A
Youll never look at me that way again, if you knew what I did"
             E                       A
And so your tears fell and melted the snow
              E                  A
You told me secrets nobody had known
           E                          G#m                      A
Oh, but I never loved you more even though now I knew what you did


C#m     E
Oh my dear
        A        A2
I will wait for you
     C#m     E            A        A2   
And grace tonight, will pull us through
       C#m    E            A      A2     
Yeah, oh my dear, I will wait for you
     C#m      E             A     A2         
And grace tonight will pull us through

           E                    A
Until the tears have left your eyes
           E                   A
Until the fears can sleep at night
           E                   A            C#m
Until the demons that you're scared of, disappear inside
            E                A
Until this guilt begins to crack
        E                       A
And the weight falls from your back
C#m
Oh my dear
           A2
I'll keep you in my arms...

          E                    A
Till the tears have left your eyes 
           E                   A
Until the fears can sleep at night
             E                  A                 C#m
Until the demons that you're scared of, have disappeared inside
           E                A
Until this guilt begins to crack
          E                     A
And the weight falls from your back
           C#m
Well, oh my dear
           A2               E
I�ll keep you in my arms tonight
            A2              E
I'll keep you in my arms tonight
