     This song is played in 3/4 time, so each measure has 3 beats.
     I has a waltz feel.

     Intro:

     E | C#m7  | A | B  play twice

     Verse 1
             E        C#m7
     As you lie in my arms
             A
     girl my heart on my sleeve
     E             C#m7    F#m          B
     Words come so hard in moments like these
              A         B             G#m        C#m7
     There's feelings I have that are so hard to show
         F#m               G#m7        A            B
     But right now there's one thing I want you to know

     Chorus:
         E          C#m7            A               B
     As long as the tides ebb, the earth turns the sun sets
       E            C#m7      F#m     B (transition)
     I promise I'll always be true
           A               B          G#m C#m7
     As as long as there's stars over Texas
             F#m         B            E
     darlin' I'll hang a mo -- on for you

     Verse 2

       E           C#m7
     I know I have stumbled and
     A
     caused you some tears
              E         C#m7            F#m         B
     When you needed me most, I haven't always been here
       A             B         G#m          C#m7
     I know I'm not always the man I should be
         F#m        G#m7        A           B
     But don't ever wonder what you mean to me

     Repeat Chorus

     Ending

             F#m        B            E
     darlin' I'll hang a mo -- on for you
