You Were Meant For Me

Jewel

(Tune down 1/2 step)
   C2 C2/B C Em (x2)
          C2                                C2/B
             I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
          C                             Em
             I feel so far from where I've been
          C2                                  C2/B
             I got my eggs and my pancakes too
               C                                          D
             I got my maple syrup, everything but you

             I break the yolks, make a smiley face
             I kinda like it in my brand new place
             I wipe the spots off the mirror - don't leave the keys in the door
             Never put wet towels on the floor any more

                                     C                  D
                            Cause dreams last so long
                            G     G/F#              Em
                            Even after you're gone
                            I know you love me
                            And soon you will see
                                            C
                            You were meant for me
                                   D                         Em
                            And I was meant for you
                                                                       (5th fret harmonic brush)

             I called my momma, she was out for a walk
             Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk
             So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
             More hearts being broken, more people being used

             Put on my coat in the pouring rain
             I saw a movie - it just wasn't the same
             Cause it was happy, or I was sad
             It made me miss you oh so bad

                            Cause dreams last so long
                            Even after you're gone
                            I know you love me
                            And soon you will see
                            You were meant for me
                            And I was meant for you

                                         Am                                      D
                                       I go about my business, I'm doin' fine
                                                    Bm                             D                      C  C/B
                                       Besides what would I say if I had you on the line
                                       Am                           D
                                       Same old story, not much to say
                                       Bm                                    Em
                                       Hearts are broken, everyday
                                                                                         C2 C2/B C Em (x2)

             I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
             I know you hate it when I leave the light on
             I pick a book up, turn the sheets down
             Take a deep breath and a good look around

             Put on my pjs and hop into bed
             I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead
             I try and tell myself it'll be all right
             I just shouldn't think anymore tonight

                            Cause dreams last so long
                            Even after you're gone
                            I know you love me
                            And soon you will see
                            You were meant for me
                            And I was meant for you

                            Yeah, you were meant for me
                                   D                        C2   C2/B  C  Em
                            And I was meant for you...
