Verse 1:
   C/G
I never meant to wither
   Em
I wanted to be tall
     Am
Like a fool, left the river
     E7b9
And watched my branches fall.

   C/G
Old and thirsty, i longed for the flood
  Em
To come back around
       Am
To the cactus in the valley,
        E7b9
That's about to crumble down
 
Chorus:
    Fmaj7                Gmaj6              C/G
And wipe the mark of sadness from my face
Fmaj7                    Gmaj6               C/G
Show me that your love will never change
Fmaj7          Gmaj6        Am    D
If my yesterday is a disgrace
Fmaj7                  Gmaj6            Ffmaj7  C/G
Tell me that you still recall my name.

Verse 2:
C/G                                  Em
So the storm finally found me and left me in the dark
Am                       E7b9
In the cloud around me, i don't know where you are
     C/G                                  Em
If this old/whole world goes up in arms, all i can do is stand
  Am                          E7b9
And i wont fight for anyone until you move my hand.

Chorus:
     Fmaj7              Gmaj6                C/G
And wipe the mark of madness from my face
 Fmaj7                   Gmaj6               C/G
Show me that your love will never change
Fmaj7          Gmaj6        Am   D
If my yesterday is a disgrace,
Fmaj7               Gmaj6               Fmaj7  C/G
Tell me that you still recall my name.

Bridge:
(the C/G can be replaced by an open C chord)
   Am            Dm
Oh here, in this shadow;
       G
Here i am
       Am          C/G      Am
And i need someone by my side.
        Dm
It becomes so
          G
Hard to stand
              C/G      G       Am
And i keep trying to dry my eyes.
C/G             D
Come and find me
         Fmaj7
In the valley.

Chorus:
     Fmaj7               Gmaj6             C/G
And Wipe the mark of sadness from my face,
Fmaj7                Gmaj6                 C/G
show me that your love will never change.
    Fmaj7           Gmaj6       Am    D
And if my yesterday is a disgrace,
 Fmaj7                Gmaj6              F  C/G
Tell me that you still recall my name.

     Fmaj7               Gmaj6               C/G
And wipe the mark of madness from my face
Fmaj7                   Gmaj6              C/G
Show me that your love will never change.
     Fmaj7          Gmaj6        Am       D
And if my yesterday is a disgrace
Fmaj7                  Gmaj6               Fmaj7     C/G
Tell me that you'll still recall my name.
C/G     Fmaj7                Gmaj6              Fmaj7    C/G
Oh tell me that you'll still recall my name.
C/G     Fmaj7              Gmaj6              Fmaj7    C/G
Oh tell me that you'll still recall my name.


In the chorus, play the C/G chord the same way it's played in the introduction.
