Meanwhile

  F 
I told her 
Bb                  F 
Things could not be better 
Bb              Am         Gm Am Gm 
Every day's red letter for me 

  F 
I told her 
   Bb               F 
My burdens are much lighter 
    Bb                 Am           Gm Am Gm 
And all the lights are brighter for me 

Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7        Bb 
So I'll lie again 
Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7       Bb 
So I'll lie 
 Gm   Dm 
Again 
 
  F 
I told her 
       Bb        F 
"Don't worry any longer 
       Bb               Am          Gm  Am Gm 
'Cause faith is getting stronger in me" 

  F 
I told her 
Bb                 F 
All the things I'm learning 
Bb              Am          Gm Am Gm 
How the tide is turning for me 

Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7        Bb 
So I'll lie again 
Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7       Bb 
So I'll lie 
 Gm   Dm Gm Dm 
Again 

F                             Bb 
Meanwhile, I'm feeling like a ghost on the edge of night 
F                         Bb 
Restless for a home I can glimpse in the fading light 
F                           Bb 
Craving for something I can never quite get right 
Gm 
Being only inches away 
F                             Bb 
Meanwhile, I pass through the crowd on the boulevard 
F                        Bb 
Turn a deaf ear to every laugh that is coming hard 
F                       Bb 
Add another pile to the trash in the junkyard 
Gm                                   Dm  Gm Dm 
While keeping all the waking dogs at bay 

  F 
I told her 
Bb                  F 
Things could not be better 
Bb              Am         Gm Am Gm 
Every day's red letter for me 

Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7        Bb 
So I'll lie again 
Bb           F 
Makes her so happy 
   A7       Bb 
So I'll lie again
