Song Of You And Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Across the
German border to
Alsace -Lorraine
Bought two tickets for
Marseilles on the
Strasbourg train
When the sun rose we were flying
on a wind of lavender
Drinking red wine in the morning
[G]along [D]the cold deser[Am]t
[D]Then you asked a question,
[G]touched a chord in me
[D]Could there [Am]ever be a bluer blue,
[G]bluer [D]than the [A]sea?
[Am]I had [Em]to think it over,
if [D]that could really be
think [Am]I gave an answer then fo[Gsus2]r you,
for [D]you, but not [Am]for me
Well, we set up house right off
the square close to our cafe
Made love every morning,
watch the ships roll on the bay
Precious tiny mountain,
my feet were in the flames
By the little market place,
the strolls after the rain
[D]I was beckoned to the wall with
every feel[G]ing that I [D]lacked
A [Am]romance gotten out of hand,
I was [G]falling through [D]the [Am]cracks
We [Em]saw some driftwood floati[D]ng in the blue
I [A]saw a broken seashell and a [Am]pearl
The [D]pearl[Am]
I'm that all -night train to
Stockholm, you got me acting like a kid
Your mouth spun out rebel words,
my soul was on a thread
The kisses made me seasick when you
freshed your lips to mine
Cars are blank and old man's land
where the [A]heroes [D]storm in [Am]blind
You [D]pinched your head down on my lap
whenev[G]er I would have screamed
[Gsus2]Was it lo[Am]ve or was it crazy whenever
wo[G]men [D]crossed the [Am]sea?
[Em]Danger loves to make your plans,
cause [D]danger never sleeps
That [Am]night you hummed
the chorus lines of that [G]song
[D]Song of you and[Am] me
When near became too many times
another word for far
Separation played a major role,
but the trail [D]was the [Am]start
Outside the
Cent[A]ral
Sta[Am]tion, outside in the rain
You pressed your lips against
the glass one last [D]time again
[Am]I stum[D]bled to the streets alone,
looking for [G]my drunken boat
[Am]Lord, it took me hostage
without a [D]ransom [Am]note
I [Em]sailed back to my shipwrecked home
to [D]cut the anchor free
[Am]Watchin' from the churnin' waves,
you're [G]blowin' [Gsus2]kisses[D]
On the sea [Am]to me
Remember that night and the autumn
light on the southern shore of
Creech
Cats chasin' their own shadows,
we walked [A]along the [Am]beach
We smoked and watched a girl swim,
all naked in the sea
Had a screamin' argument,
more smokin' jealousy
[D]Two can live together, still [G]feel all alone
We [Am]both knew you had someone else
[G]waitin' [D]there back [A]home
When [E]you start [Em]playin' game to two,
the [D]puzzle never ends
A [Am]chess game and an extra pawn, [G]yeah
[Am]Me and y[D]ou, or you and h[Am]im
Let me tell you of a story, love,
on a winter's night alone
At the
New
York
City
Opera,
Madame
Butterfly was shown
I sat up in the same row
where we had sat before
I dreamed that we'd seen
La
Boheme, but [G]you said [D]turn the [A]door
Now, [D]a broken arrow falling
[G]from your smoking bow
[D]Was [Am]it love or was it crazy?
Every leading [D]man must [A]know
As the [Em]curtain fell and the [E]music died,
I [D]was the last to leave
The [Am]crowd had seen a tragedy, but
[G]I, [Gsus2]I saw you[G] in[D] me[Am]
I'm in
Old
Nut
Tree,
Switzerland, it was almost
Christmas
Eve
Face reflected in the wind,
looking burning on my sleeve
[D]I f[Am]elt you in the tunnel,
but my arms weren't long enough
You were naked on the kitchen floor
the day the blue [D]eyes [Am]stopped
[D]Every word we tried to speak,
[G]ice froze in our [D]throats
Was [Am]it love or [A]was it [Am]crazy,
I [G]didn't wan[D]na [Am]know
[D]When [Em]I finally dried my eyes,
I [D]didn't wash dirty sheets
I saw [A]you bend [Am]down and [A]dry [Am]your hair,
but [G]that, but [D]that's you and [Am]me
You and [G]me[D]
That was you [A]and me[Am][Am][Am]
[Am]You
