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
