"SWAY"
Written by Bic Runga.
Taken from the Columbia/Sony album 'Drive'.

Transcription taken from official sheet music.

INTRO:  D  E  D  E  

A                  C#m
Don't stray, don't ever go away 
     D
I should be much too smart for this 

You know it gets the better of me 
A               C#m  
Sometimes, when   you   and I collide 
   D                          E
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time         
              F#m              C#m
Don't let me drown, let me down 
            D                E
I say it's all because of you 
          A       C#m
And here  I  go, losing my control 
      D
I'm practising your name so I can say it to your face 
             A                 C#m
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye 
     D     
Let all the things you mean to me    
      E
Come tumbling out my mouth 
                    F#m                  C#m
Indeed it's time    to      tell you why 
            D             E
I say it's infintely true 

CHORUS: 

A                  E               F#m
  Say you'll stay,   don't come and go 
         C#m           E         
Like you do 
A                  E                F#m
  Sway my way,       yeah I need to know 
               C#m
All about you 


Verse 2:
And there's no cure, and no way to be sure 
Why everything's turned inside out 
Instilling so much doubt 
It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired 
My head is battling with my heart 
My logic has been torn apart 
And now it all turns sour 
Come sweeten every afternoon 

CHORUS TWICE 

E          D
   It's all because of you 
E          D
   It's all because of you 

F#m               C#m                D              E
Now it all turns sour, come sweeten every afternoon 
      F#m             C#m                  D              E
It's time to tell you why,     I say it's infinitely true 

CHORUS TWICE 

It's all because of you 
It's all because of you 
It's all because of you
