Blue Rodeo - 5 Days In May

INTRO:  [Em]  [D]  [Am]  [C]
 
[Em]They met in a hurricane
[D]Standing in the shelter out of the rain
[Am]She tucked a note into his [C]hand
[Em]Later on they took his car
[D]Drove on down where the beaches are
[Am]He wrote her name in the [C]sand
[G] Never even [F]let go of her [C]hand  [D]

[Em]Somehow they stayed that way
[D]For those 5 days in May
[Am] Made all the stars around them [C]shine
[Em] Funny how you can look in vain
[D] Living on nerves and such sweet pain
[Am]The loneliness that cuts so [C]fine
[G] To find the [F]face you've seen a thousand [C]times  [D]
 
CHORUS:
[C]Sometimes the world begins
To set you up on your feet again
[Bm] It wipes the tears from your [D]eyes
[C]How will you ever know
The way that circumstances go
[Bm] Always going to hit you by sur[D]prise
I [Am]know my past [G/B]You were there
In [C]everything I've [Em7]done
You are the one

INTRO (x3)

[Em]Looking back it's hard to tell
[D]Why they stood while others fell
[Am]Spend your life working it [C]out
[Em]All I know is one cloudy day
[D]They both just ran away
[Am]Rain on the windshield heading [C]South
[G] She loved the [F]lines around his [C]mouth  [D]

CHORUS

INTRO (x3)
