Ryan Adams - When You Cross Over Chords

[intro]
D#  A#  D#  A#

[verse 1]
        D#
In Carolina
                A#
There were pictures on the wall
                  D#
And the pain is lighter
                                  A#
The house is empty now and only shadows fall

[chorus]
                   G#
And when you cross over
              D#
I hope she's waiting there for you
                G#
When you cross over
                  D#
Please know that I'll always love you
                G#
When you cross over
           D#
Into the spaces in the blue
               D#/G
When you cross over
                                   G#
I hope your pain returns into the light
A#                      D#
When you cross over tonight

[verse 2]
    D#
My brother
                         A#
Born in Alabama just as winter calmed
           D#
My family moved to Carolina
                                   A#
In the shadows of the pines and lumberyards

[chorus]
                    G#
And when you cross over
                 D#
I hope they're waiting there for you
                G#
When you cross over
                       D#
Please know that I'll always love you
                G#
When you cross over
           D#
Into the spaces in the blue
              D#/G                  G#
And may your pain return into the light
                    A#   D#
When you cross over tonight

[bridge]
Cm                       D#         G#     A#
I know you didn't wanna leave this way
Cm                             D#
I know you tried your best to hide it
           G#               A#
I'm gonna love you now, anyway

[verse 3]
       D#
In Carolina
         A#                 A#
Roses bloom beside the house
                        D#
Your brother and your sister,

your mother and your father
            A#
All of your friends gather around

[chorus]
                    G#
And when you cross over
                 D#
I hope they're waiting there for you
                G#
When you cross over
                     D#
Please know that I'll always love you
                G#
When you cross over
                D#
To the space between the blue
            D#/G                      G#
And all the pain dissolves into the light
                   A#   D#
When you cross over tonight

[outro]
A#  G#  A#  D#
