Beautiful History

Piano riff)
[E] [Bm9] [F#m] [A2]

[E]I have made mi[Bm9]stakes
and I have been [F#m]afraid
I have felt[A2] alone
Then you called my na[E]me

Things were crashing lou[Bm9]dly
Happening all ar[F#m]ound me
But your still small v[A2]oice
Was all that I could [E]hear

[E]I am here
I'm h[Bm9]olding you
You'll m[F#m]ake it through this
A2             Bmin  (B on way to chorus)
I am here, I am here
x2

[A2]Whenever you run away  [E]
[B]whenever you lose your f[A2]aith
It's just another strok[E]e of
the pen[B] on the page [A2]
A lonely ray of [E]hope
is a[B]ll that you [A2]need
     B            E (if second time through, do a C
to see a beautiful history

[E](continued from Chorus) [Bm9] [F#m] [A2]

[E]Well I have been such a [Bm9]fool
when I have known the trut[F#m]h
I've wasted so much tim[A2]e
Doing what I want to d[E]o
I've been living[Bm9] solely
for myself and myself onl[F#m]y
                    [Bm9] -> [B]
but your still small voice

is whispering

I[C#m] toss and tur[A2]n and scream   [E]
I tr[B]y to do everyt[C#m]hing
with two feet[A2] on the ground [E]
I ju[B]st keep falling down[C#m] again
I f[A2]eel so far from hom[E]e
[B]Completely on my own
[Ab]    [A]        [Bsus4] -> [B]
and then I hear you say
[A2]I am here, I[B] am here

[A2]Whenever you run away  [E]
[B]whenever you lose your f[A2]aith
It's just another strok[E]e of
the pen[B] on the page [A2]
A lonely ray of [E]hope
is a[B]ll that you [A2]need
to se[B]e a beautiful[A2] history      [E]
a b[B]eautiful [A2]history     [E]
a b[B]eautiful [A2]history     [E]
   [B]        [A2]          [B]       [A2]
