Mary Chapin Carpenter

To hear you say my ^D name, ^G to see you search my ^D eyes
To feel you touch my ^G hand, ^A it more than satis ^D fies.
If ^G I was not the ^D first, ^G just say I'll be the ^D last
It's too much to ex ^G pect, ^A but it's not too much to ^D ask.
Now I can only ^G dream of being all you ^D need
And I can only ^G tr ^Bm y to be the reason ^G why ^A
You think about to ^D day ^G and forget about the ^D past
It's too much to ex ^G pect, ^A but it's not too much to ^D ask.

Now I can only ^G dream of being all you ^D need
And I can only ^G tr ^Bm y to be the reason ^G why ^A
You think about to ^D day ^G 'cause the past is just the ^D pas ^Bm t
It's too much to ex ^G pect, ^A but it doesn't hurt to ^D ask ^Bm
It's too much to ex ^A pect, ^G but it's not too much to ^D ask.
