I Will Not Take These Things For Granted

Tom:
F
One part of me
                     G          F
Wants to tell you everything
                        G
One part just needs the quiet
              F
And if I’m lonely here
        G
And only here
                F
And on the telephone
                E
You offer reassurance
C                               G
I will not take these things for granted
C           D           G
I will not take these things…
F
How can I hold a part of me…
                  G
That only you can carry
F                             G
It needs a strength I haven’t found
            F
But if it’s frightening
              G
I’ll bear the cold
            F
And on the telephone
               E
You offer warm asylum
Pre-chorus:
A
I’m listening
A/F#            E
Flowers in the garden
                A
Laughter in the halls
A/F#            G
Children in the park

[Refrão]
Chorus:
C                               G
I will not take these things for granted
C                               G
I will not take these things for granted
C                               G
I will not take these things for granted
C           D                G        F
I will not take these things…anymore

   F
To crawl inside the wire
                   G
And feel something near me
F               G
To feel this accepting
           F
That it is lonely here
         G
But not alone
           F
But on the telephone
            E
You offer visions dancing
Pre-chorus:
A
I’m listening
             E
Music in the bedroom
                A
Laughter in the hall
                E
Diamonds in the ocean
               A
Singing by the fire
                    E
Running through the forest
                A
Standing in the wind
               G
Rolling canyons
