All He Ever Saw Was You Kate Wolf
INTRO: Em D G
And now the flame is out,[C] but the light burns [G]on
No one ever [Em]said he was [C]bigger than his [D]songs
[G]So few ever knew the [C]heart inside the [G]man
But he [Bm]gave himself a[C]way, as only [Am]poets [Dsus4]can[D]
He took the [G]stories of his people and [C]gave them back in [G]rhyme
But for the pleasures of the [Em]hearth there was [C]never enough [D]time
He [G]said one day he'd quit and [C]then he would come [G]home
But there was [Bm]always one more [C]stage, always [Am]one more [Dsus4]road[D]
CHORUS:
The candle's [G]burning at both ends, it's [C]burning in the [G]middle
There's no time to [Em]stop between the [C]guitar and the [G]fiddle
A crazy tune, a [Bm]crazy time, you [C]know the words were [G]true
Smiles [Am]lit their eyes, but [D7]all he ever saw was [G]you
INSTRUMENTAL: C G C G C G Am D C G C G Am D G
And the road finally claimed him like a [C]sailor lost at [G]sea
Setting sail on the ho[Em]rizon that [C]would not let him [D]be
[G]Following a star that [C]drew him like a [G]flame
And though he [Bm]loved you so [C]well it was [Am]not the [Dsus4]same[D]
CHORUS:
The candle's [G]burning at both ends, it's [C]burning in the [G]middle
There's no time to [Em]stop between the [C]guitar and the [G]fiddle
A crazy tune, a [Bm]crazy time, you [C]know the words were [G]true
Smiles [Am]lit their eyes, but [D7]all he ever saw was [G]you
CHORUS:
The candle's burning at both ends, it's [C]burning in the [G]middle
There's no time to [Em]stop between the [C]guitar and the [G]fiddle
A crazy tune, a [Bm]crazy time, you [C]know the words were [G]true
Smiles [Am]lit their eyes, but [D7]all he ever saw was [G]you [Am] [D] [G]
