Katie Melua - I Cried For You

i’ve tried a few other versions of this song , but then had
to sit and chord it how it sounds to my ear , i think it sounds
almost there if you play along with the track , as always
any mistakes or bloopers are mine , hope you enjoy .

don’t forget your capo on the first fret

if you like it , go on , go mad , rate it !

i cried for you
* * capo 1st fret * *

G F
you’re beautiful so silently , it lies beneath a shade of blue
C D G
it struck me so violently , when i looked at you
G F
but others pass they never pause , to feel that magic in your hand
C D G
to me you’re like a wild rose , they never understand , why

G Am7
i cried for you , when the sky cried for you
D C D G
and when you went , i became a hopeless drifter
G Am7
but this life was not for you , though i learned from you
D C D G
that beauty , need only be a whisper

G F
i’ll cross the sea – s , for a different world
C D G
with your treasure , a secret for me to hold
G F
in years they may , forget this love of ours
C D G
or that we met , they may not know , how much you meant to me

G Am7
i cried for you , when the sky cried for you
D C D G
and when you went , i became a hopeless drifter
G Am7
but this life was not for you , though i learned from you
D C D G
that beauty , need only be a whisper

Am7 D G D C
without you , now i see how fra – gile the wo – rld can be
Am7 D G D C G
and i know you’ve gone away , but in my heart you’ll al – ways st – ay

G Am7
i cried for you , when the sky cried for you
D C D G
and when you went , i became a hopeless drifter
G Am7
but this life was not for you , though i learned from you
D C D G D C D G
that beauty , need only be a whisper , that beauty , need only be a whisper
