He Came To Meet Me

	  		
 
Intro: C G Em 

C          G 
He came to meet me 
            C 
On some July morning 
          G 
He said he missed me 
               C 
He came without warning 
             Em 
We walked for half a day 
              C 
Got lost in my neighborhood 
         Em 
Came back another way 
           C 
Just like I knew we would 
              G 
And he came to meet me 


C            G 
He had some stories 
          C 
He knew a few of mine 
         G 
I had not heard his voice 
          C 
For such a long time 
             Em 
My mind would race a bit 
            C 
Come back to where we stood 
           Em 
I could not keep hold of it 
          C 
Although I knew I should 
              G 
And he came to meet me

C             G 
I'd seen this whole day 
            C 
Like it was drawing near 
             G 
Sometimes I'd pray for it 
             C 
Sometimes I'd shake with fear 
             Em 
Sometimes the only thought 
            C 
That kept me in the night 
            Em 
Was one that I'd forgot 
           C 
In summer's blinding light 
              G 
And he came to meet me 

C G C G C G    

C                G 
I wrote myself a song 
           C 
I could not speak what I'd done 
           G 
He could've been here all along 
           C 
He could've been anyone 
            Em 
But there is no one who 
             C 
Could wake my heart like this 
              Em 
Could break my world in two 
         C 
I felt a suddenness 
        Em 
I felt a suddenness 
            C 
The day fell completely still 
               Em 
The dream was a lot like this 
           C 
But I never knew until 
          G 
He came to meet me
