Sudden Gift of Fate Mary Chapin Carpenter
Intro:
[Em] [D] [C(9)] [D] [Em] [D] [C(9)] [D]
[Em] Some people need to know[D] what to expect
[C(9)] Need to keep control,[D] need to keep one step
[Em] Ahead of every ch[D]ance, as if chance dec[C(9)]ides[D]
[Em] Who it's gonna pass,[D] who it will reward
[C(9)] They don't understand,[D] chances don't keep score
[Em] They just find us when[D] we're there to [C(9)]find[D]
And so this [G]has to be[Bm] a sudden gift o[C(9)]f fate[D]
You're nothing [G]less to me[Bm] than a sudden gift o[C(9)]f fate[D]
It's not as [C(9)]if it comes down [D]to your turn
That [Em]someone somewhere [Am]feels you've earned
You just [C(9)]learn[-] t[D]o wait [C(9)] [-] [D] for [C(9)]sudden g[-]ifts [D]of fate[C(9)] [-] [D]
Some people've never been the lonely kind
Never called a friend in the middle of the night
Just to hear a voice say it's okay
And now I hear you speak each and every word
That I didn't think lonely people heard
You took a long night and turned it into day
And so this has to be a sudden gift of fate
You're nothing less to me than a sudden gift of fate
Its not as if it comes down to your turn
That someone somewhere feels you've earned
You just learn to wait for sudden gifts of fate
You can [C(9)]celeb[-]ra[D]te, [C(9)] [-] [D] gifts are [C(9)]never[-] l[D]ate[C(9)] [-] [D]
You just l[C(9)]earn [-]to[D] wait[C(9)] [-] [D] for [C(9)]sudden[-] gi[D]fts of fa[C(9)]te[-] [D]
[C(9)](fade[-])[D] [C(9)] [-] [D]
