Alibi

A C#m

   A
 I won't forget the reasons
   C#m
 I went so far to love you
   A
 A man is most important
             C#m
 When he's unmoved by separation
     A
 And tries to match the tempo
          C#m
 In which death succeeds creation
 A
 Burning there to keep you
       C#m
 All I needed was some patience

          D                  C#m
 When you turned into a woman
        A              D
 When I loved you as a child
   D            C#m
 I wanted to protect you
          A                     D  
 From the things that made you

smile


              D  ( A ) E
 My little alibi
E                             
 Time couldn't change us but we 
   D  ( A ) E
tried
E             D ( A ) E
 My little alibi
E
 I wanna see you cry

 A              C#m

   C#m
 I went so far to love you
     A
 The patterns in the trees and winds
    C#m
 Forgot themselves inside you
     A
 But I was not the wind
           C#m
 I was an anchor just to keep you
    A
 As clean, never fleeting
          C#m
 Like the innocence that bound you

     D          C#m
 And I hate to say it
              A             D
 But you were bad in every way
   D              C#m
 I guess I had it coming
   A             D    ( A ) E
 I feel it still today


              D  ( A ) E
 My little alibi
E                             
 Time couldn't change us but we
