You Weren’t There

You Weren’t There: Chords

Intro:
SI    MIadd9        

SOL#m    DO#m    MI    SOL#m    MI    

SI                 MIadd9
 She came home, just won the game
                       SOL#m
Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream
DO#m                   MI
 All she wanted was to make you proud,
SOL#m        MI
 You weren't there
SI                  MIadd9
 He had his birthday few days ago
                        SOL#m
He got some presents, a big party too
DO#m               MI
 And there were congratulation calls
       SOL#m                           FA#
As the years before, not ever one from you

            MIadd9                 DO#m
You weren't there, distant, far away
                       SOL#m
It's like this every day, 
                       FA#
they see you in their heads
                  DO#m
Wonder if you'll come
                      MI                       SOL#m
Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again

SI                   MIadd9
 She cut herself on a piece of paper
                       SOL#m
It didn't hurt, but she saw the blood
DO#m                   MI                 SOL#m   MI
 She could need that embrace, you weren't there
SI              MIadd9
 Did he have to cry louder,
                  SOL#m       DO#m
Would that make you hear him
                       MI              SOL#m   FA#
You see, his heart was broken, for the first time

            MIadd9                 DO#m
You weren't there, distant, far away
                       SOL#m
It's like this every day, 
                      FA#
they see you in their heads
                  DO#m
Wonder if you'll come
                      MI                       SOL#m
Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again
       FA#               MI
Cannot turn back time, a wish yet to come true
        DO#m            FA#      MI
They're making up these stories about you

            MIadd9                 DO#m
You weren't there, distant, far away
                       SOL#m
It's like this every day, 
                      FA#
they see you in their heads
                  DO#m
Wonder if you'll come
                     MI                        SOL#m
Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again

FA#    MI

                      DO#m      SOL#m
...and miss you once again

You Weren't There è un brano scritto e inciso da Lene Marlin, all'anagrafe Lene Marlin Pedersen, contenuto nell'album Another Day pubblicato nel 2003. Seconda fatica discografica per la cantautrice norvegese, esce a quattro anni di distanza dal precedente Playing My Game senza però riuscire a confermarne i grandi risultati. La canzone è il primo singolo estratto, una ballata pop-rock che racconta varie storie di bambini che sentono la mancanza di una figura genitoriale.
