You were meant for me

Jewel


 Cadd9G6
 I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
 CEm
 I feel so far from where I've been
 Cadd9G6
 I got my eggs.  I got my pancakes too
 CD
 I got my maple syrup, everything but you
 Cadd9G6
 I break the yolks, make a smiley face
 CEm
 I kinda like it in my brand new place
 Cadd9G6
Wipe the spots off of the mirror don't leave the keys in the door
 CD
 I never put my towels on the floor anymore 'cause
CHORUS:
 CD
 Dreams last so long
 GD/FEm
 Even after you're gone
 CD
 I know that you love me
 GD/FEm
 And soon you will see
 C
 You were meant for me
 DEmEm
And I was meant for you

 Cadd9G6
 I called my momma, she was out for a walk
 CEm
 Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk so I
 Cadd9G6
 Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
 CD
 More hearts being broken or people being used
 Cadd9G6
 Put on my coat in the pouring rain
 CEm
 I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
 Cadd9G6
'Cause it was happy oh I was sad and
 CD
 It made me miss you oh so bad
CHORUS
BRIDGE
 CD
 Go about my business, I'm doing fine

Besides, what I say if I had you on the line
 CD
 Same old story, not much to say
 Em
 Hearts are broken every day
Cadd9 G6 C Em (2x)
 Cadd9G6
 I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
 CEm
 I know you hate it when I leave the light on
 Cadd9G6
I pick a book up.  Turn the sheets down.
 CD
 Take a deep breath and a good look around
 Cadd9G6
 Put on pj's and hop into bed
 CEm
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
 Cadd9G6
 I try and tell myself it'll be all right
 CD
 I just shouldn't think anymore tonight
CHORUS
 C
 You were meant for me

This is a pretty siple song. The chord names are scetchy, but it sounds
good

wouldn't
be as great of a song(and theres about 15 versions in the .tab)As always
all corrections, and *better* versions to KyleB@Juno.com

Seems to be two separate versions one one page along with "chaff" that is irrelevant.

seems to be quitea mess

Six Degrees (report comment to admin): 
The first (top) version seems not bad to me. I could make it sound reasonable (? on G6). The 5th fret harmonics may as well be changed to 12th fret harmonics and are much easier to sound out for what amounts to a fun version.
