Jeff Buckley - I Know We Could Be So Happy Baby (If We Wanted To Be): chords

Em              G
There's no easy answer,
D/F#
none to blame or forgive.
Em    G            D/F#
Two cripples dancing to the end we live.
Am7
I'm not with you, not of you.
     G                D/F#
Not with you, not of you.

You are soft and young to me.
I am the ghost who comes and goes
And I hope I'll catch you in the throws
Of one last look at the wonder,
One last look at the wonder.

Chorus:
Em
Oh, God, I love you,
    Bm
and all the past we once knew
Em
Some other love becomes you,
  Bm
whatever else we come to
C                      D
I know we could be so happy, baby,
      D/G#
if we wanted to be

You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
I'm hoping that I'll catch you in the throes
One last look at the joy that we've become
But there's no easy answer
None to blame or forgive
We were two cripples dancing
To the bitter end we live

Chorus

I'm not with you, but of you
I'm not with you, but of you

Chorus

Am                           D/F#
We had a birthplace in common
We have separate beds and lives
      Em
Just sit here and gloat
  G/B
Break out the oldest pictures
Em                                  G/B
And hang your ruined letters out to dry
          Am
We had a birthplace in common
     G                D/A  D/F# D
And separate beds and lives

D
And lives, and lives, and lives
        C                  D/A
And I know we could be so happy, baby
                  D/G#
If we wanted to be
    C                  Bm
I know we could be so happy, baby
