Katie Melua

"I Cried For You"
^A You're beautiful so silently
^G It lies beneath a shade of blue
^D It struck me so ^E violently
^A When I looke ^Aadd9 d at you

But others pass, the never pause,
To feel that magic in your hand
To me you're like a wild rose
They never understand why

^As I cried for you

When the sky cried for you
^E6 And when you went
^E7 I became ^As a hopel ^Aadd9 ess drifter
^As But this life was not for you
^E Though I learned from you,
^E7 That bea ^As uty need ^Aadd9 only be a whisper

I'll cross the sea for a different world,
With your treasure, a secret for me to hold

In many years they may forget
This love of ours or that we met,
They may not know
how much you meant to me.

I cried for you
And the sky cried for you,
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter.
But this life was not for you,
Though I learned from you,
That beauty need only be a whisper
^b Without y ^E ou now I see,
^A How f ^E ragile the wo ^D rld can be
^b And I know y ^E ou've gone away
^A But i ^E n my heart yo ^D u'll always stay.

I cried for you
And the sky cried for you,
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter.
But this life was not for you,
Though I learned from you,
That beauty need only be a whisper
That beauty need only be a whisper
