Witness To Your Life

                           F
Someone was crying and the bells ring
                      C
Then I don't remember a thing
                          Am                       G
You were talking, but the words came from somebody else
                          F
Someone said kiss her and so you did
                     C
I was smiling like a little kid
                                Am                           G
You kissed my teeth and then we both hid inside each other's arms


[Chorus]

                       F
All you really need is someone to be here
                     C
Someone who'll never let you disappear
    Am             G               F
And I will be that witness to your life

This may just be a softer place to fall
                  C
But somebody will answer when you call
    Am             G               F
And I will be that witness to your life


[Verse 2]

                                F
You got that job and joined the union
                                C
Fought every urge that told you to run
                             Am                       G
Stared down the barrel of an empty gun and wondered a bit
                     F
Stopped listening to all your friends
                                C
They think this is where life begins and ends
                   Am                                          G
No one reaches, no one transcends they just learn to live with it


[Chorus]

                       F
All you really need is someone to be here
                     C
Someone who'll never let you disappear
    Am             G               F
And I will be that witness to your life

This may just be a softer place to fall
                  C
But somebody will answer when you call
    Am             G               F
And I will be that witness to your life


[Chorus]

                       F
All you really need is someone to be here
                     C
Someone who'll never let you disappear
    Am             G               F
And I will be that witness to your life
      Am             G              F
Baby, I will be that witness to your life


[Verse 3]

                           F
Up the road your car comes into view
                               C
And from our front lawn I just smile at you
                        Am                                     C
Another day I thank the fates that you took the right road home___
