A Better Time To Meet

 
              
C                                G 
Never more in love than when I'm leaving 
G                                    C 
Never miss you more than when you're gone 
C                                 G 
Never miss the wind that keep me breathing 
G                                       C 
'Til it leaves my lungs gasping for its song 
 
 
C                                              G 
You warmed the earth inside me with your bare hands 
G                                          C 
You took me by the heart and slowed it's beat 
C                                     G 
The dirt within me turned and became money 
G                                           C 
With your digging and your constant burning heat 
 
 
Am                                 F 
You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October 
C                 Am             G 
Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet 
Am                                              F 
And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times over 
C                             G              C 
It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet 
 
 
C                                     G 
I never feel more found than when I'm wandering 
G                                     C 
I never feel more still than when I'm free 
C                                         G 
But to hear that quiet voice, I'd give up everything 
G                                  C 
To follow the soft sighing of the sea 
 
 
Am                                 F 
You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October 
C                 Am             G 
Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet 
Am                                              F 
And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times over 
C                             G              C 
It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet
