Tanita Tikaram - We Almost Got it Together
-----------------------------------------------
W[C]e almost got it tog[G]ether
And I[Am]'ll be your favourite th[F]ing
Oh st[C]and by the river with h[G]ard-luck eyes
And I[Am]'ll just be open and s[F]ing
And i[C]f I was telling you st[G]ories
I was o[Am]nly trying to surpr[F]ise
I w[C]ish I was like the fr[F]og princess
G | C F C G |
And I'd never tell you lies
And d[C]own by the soil of the h[G]ard life
Oh t[Am]hey like to greet us with sm[F]iles
Th[C]ey like to tell us their go[G]od hostess
Has tr[Am]avelled a million m[F]iles
But y[C]ou'd like it written cl[G]oser
Yes, y[Am]ou'd like it written p[F]ure
If I t[C]old you this, would you m[F]iss my kiss
G | C F C G |
Would you come right back for more
Oh, I'd l[Am]ike to be, what I w[F]anna be
But you w[C]ant to carry [G]on
But y[Am]ou need to take, what y[F]ou have to take
G | C F C G |
But I'd still be here when you're gone
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tanita_tikaram/we_almost_got_it_together_crd.html )
And th[C]ere's a light by your w[G]indow
And I'd l[Am]ike to capture you b[F]y there
And I'd l[C]ike to hold you for a[G]ll to see
But t[Am]hey don't really c[F]are
And if [C]I said you're no peccad[G]illo
Yes, [Am]I said you're a major th[F]ing
Would yo[C]u stand by me, at th[F]e corner dock
G | C F C G |
And say, "Yes, this girl is the swing!"
Oh, I'd l[Am]ike to be, what I w[F]anna be
But you w[C]ant to carry [G]on
But you n[Am]eed to take, what you h[F]ave to take
G | C F C G |
But I'd still be here when you're gone
[Am]And I'd like an[F]other cue
That's w[C]hy I strain to s[G]ee
[Am]And I'd like the b[F]est in you
G | C F C G |
Cause you write the best in me
And e[C]verybody was sw[G]inging
Oh sw[Am]ooning to the heart in m[F]e
Oh th[C]ey were sure that I'd be b[G]urning, yes
So their t[Am]art swerve to here might b[F]e
But if [C]I said "you're gold, ins[G]ide, yes?"
And [Am]if you were true to m[F]e
Would you [C]hang around with that c[F]reepy smile
G | C F C G |
Crawl home back to me
Oh, I'd l[Am]ike to be, what I w[F]anna be
But you w[C]ant to carry [G]on
But you n[Am]eed to take, what you h[F]ave to take
G | C F C G |
But I'd still be here when you're gone
