To A Poet

• D

Capo 1


D Am G D 
Oooh... 


Am Em 
And you said, "Don't give me nothing 
you don't want to lose" 
I said, "Darling, I'll give you everything I got 
if I want them to choose" 
Then I got on a plane and flew 
far away from you 
Though unwillingly I left 
and it was so, so hard to do 


Am C Em Am 
The streets here at home had rapidly filled up 
with the whitest of snow 
And they don't make no excuse for themselves 
and there's no need, I know 

F Am G F 
Now I miss you more than I can take 
and I will surely break 
And every morning that I wake 
god, it's the same 


C Em Am G C 
There's nothing more to it, 
I just get through it 
Oh, there's nothing more to it 
I just get through it 


Am Em 
It always takes me by surprise 
how dark it gets this time of the year 
And how apparent it all becomes 
that you're not close, not even near 
No matter how many times I tell myself 
I have to be sincere 
I have a hard time standing up 
and facing those fears 


Am C Em Am 
But Frank put it best when he said 
"You can't plan on the heart" 
Those words keep me on my feet 
when I think I might just fall apart 


F Am G F 
Now I miss you more than I can take 
and I will surely break 
And every morning that I wake 
god, it's the same 


C Em Am G C 
There's nothing more to it, 
I just get through it 
Oh, there's nothing more to it 
I just get through it 
Oh, there's nothing more to it 
I just get through it 


D Am G D 
And so I ask where are you now 
just when I needed you 
I won't ask again 
Because I know there's nothing we can do 
Not now, darling, you know it's true 


D Am G D 
Oooh...
