[intro]
C  G  Am  G  F  C/E  G

[verse 1]
C      G
 I drew pictures of you
Am          G
 Long before I met you
F      C/E             G
 Just a fragment of my mind
C     G
 I had called out for you
Am     G
 Almost every night
F        C/E                G
 Precious things are hard to find

[verse 2]
C      G
 It was just an evening
Am        G
 Much like any else
F        C/E          G
 When you came into my life
C        G
 It takes one to know one
Am    G
 And I saw you there
F        C/E             G
 As I had seen you all my life

[chorus]
C         G              Am
 I thank a God I've never met
      G           F      C/E    G
Never loved, never wanted (For you)
C          G              Am
 I write it so I don't forget
      G            F
Never let it get away
         C/E
I wear a picture of you
G
 Just to keep you safe

C  G  Am  G  F  C/E  G
Mmm...

Mmm...

[verse 3]
C          G
 Now that I have you
Am     G
 I will not forget
F      C/E         G
 What a miracle you are
C           G
 No childish expectation
Am      G
 Love is not the answer
F       C/E                  G
 But the line that marks the start
