You Are Here In MeLyrics by Helena Donovan


Music by Roger Guppy






Intro:




[Em][G][C][D]




Verse 1:


A [G]million threads, the [C]written word, for [D]everyone to [G]see,


[G]Calculating [C]time went wrong and [D]brought you here to [G]me,


It’s a [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery, when [C]paths like this co[D]llide,


A [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery; where [C]two souls must re[D]side.






Verse2:


You [G]seem to know my [C]heart and soul, but [D]how could that [G]be,


Cos’ [G]I have never [C]seen your face, yet [D]you are here in [G]me,


It’s a [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery, when [C]paths like this co[D]llide,


A [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery; where [C]two souls must re[D]side.




Bridge:1


So[Cmaj7]now the time is [Fmaj7]right for us, we [D]know just how to [D]be,


No [Cmaj7]strangeness here [Fmaj7]because I know that [D]you are here in [G]me.



[Em][G][C][D]






Verse 3:


I [G]cannot put a [C]face to you, I know [D]we have never [G]met,


This [G]feeling of what [C]could have been, is a [D]feeling of re[G]gret,


It’s a [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery, when [C]paths like this co[D]llide,


A [Em]strange world, a [G]mystery; where [C]two souls must re[D]side.






Bridge:2


Per[Cmaj7]haps some day we will [Fmaj7]know the truth, why [D]this has come to [D]be,


No [Cmaj7]strangeness here [Fmaj7]because I know that [D]you are here in [G]me.


[Em][G][C][D]


     



Ending:       


It’s [Bm]a strange world, a [D]mystery, when [G]paths like this co[A]llide,


A [Bm]strange world, a [D]mystery; where [G]two [A]souls must [D]reside.[D]

Re: "You Are Here In Me"

Hi All,
This song came about because i believe we all meet for reasons unknown to us. Learning lessons from each other. The line "in me!" Is how i feel when i connect to people in my life. Just like the threads on Chordie allow us to do!

The Regret line is "Myself" Never  Taking the "Music Life" i was offered a long time ago!  i dont think about every day but! I made my choice!
I have 2 fine Jewels of Sons, i might never have had!  Thats me in a nut shell!
Still Dont know how i got in! The nut shell I mean?
All i can say is! Roger Guppy encourages me all the way! also James McCormick, and  lots more People  on the site, Both personally and as friends! So thank you all.  Mó Cára! Roger For his music and the gift of shareing his gift with everyone. James for his amazing gift with words!  Dia Linn{ God To YOU All. }
Imagine i never met any of them!  I can put faces to Roger and Jeff Gilpin, Through FOC!  To me this is not important !  All  Perfect strangers on this site just being wonderful  "Human Beings".

Re: "You Are Here In Me"

Love it Old Doll & Roger - I often ponder the fact that we all come to this site because a shared interest in making music, but there seem to be many other things in common beyond the music.  Beautifully arranged & recorded Roger - Lena, you need to keep creating more lyrics!  James
