G        D                           Em
              C                               GWell I prayed that the sun was a hope and the rain was an angel
   D       Em                                   C
            GI came out of the treetop and into the cradle
          D         Em
C                        GAnd I broke down like a babe with the hungriest belly
         D          Em      C                GYou make it all worth my while

G         D   Em                                   C
                      GWell I lay under the covers for a hundred days
           D          Em                               C
                GAnd I closed both my eyes til the relatives came
           D       Em                                C
              GAnd I spun round in a circle til I came undone
         D          Em      C                G
Em    C   DYou make it all worth my while

      G                                                    DSo send me to the grave with the age old question
Em                                   CHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?
            G                                        DIt was never my intention and never my style
Em                                    C                 GEverything about you is worth my while

  D                 Em                             C
                GI laughed so nobody ever had to catch me crying
           D            Em                               C
                   GAnd I cried so nobody ever had to catch me lying
          D            Em                                  C
                       GAnd I failed a thousand times but it keeps me trying
         D          Em      C                G
Em C DYou make it all worth my while

      G                                                    DSo send me to the grave with the age old question
Em                                   CHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?
            G                                        DIt was never my intention and never my style
Em                                    C                 GEverything about you is worth my while

            G                                        DIt was never my intention and never my style
Em                                    C                 GEverything about you is worth my while

      G                                                    DSo send me to the grave with the age old question

            G                                        DIt was never my intention and never my style
Em                                           CSome things happen and I don't know why

             G                                     DAnd it all comes down at the end of the day
      Em                                   CIts hard to handle and its hard to take
         G                              DIts a mighty big world, mighty big game
Em                                        CI've been broken and I've been ashamed
                  G                                  DI've been caught in the world, out in the blue,
Em                                         C               G
  D EmCrashed to the floor but I still have you

C                G  D EmI still have you
C                G  D EmI still have you
C                G  D EmI still have you
C                G  D EmI still have you


(I think it threw out the spacing a little, but if you stick to the patterns (G-D-Em-C
and G-Em-C-D) and switch every two counts, you'll be sweet. You know the song anyway!
Otherwise, listen to the track for the timing. Sorry about that!
