For Crying Out Loud chords
Meat Loaf

Capo III

G Em Am D G

G               EmI was lost till you were found
Am               DBut I never knew how far down
      GI was falling,
         Em          C      Dbefore I reached the bottom

G              EmI was cold and you were fire
Am               DAnd I never knew how the pyre
         GCould be burning,
       Em          C         Don the edge of the ice field

            C          D      GAnd the now chilly California wind,
   C                D       Gis blowing down our bodies again
         Am      Em         Am              G                 DAnd were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand
      C          Am     Em             GOh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
    Em               Am          D         AmAnd can t you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
    EmAnd don t you hear me crying;
   GOh babe, don t go?
AmAnd don t you hear me screaming;
DHow was I to know? 

G                    CI m in the middle of nowhere,
D                   Gnear the end of the line
                        CBut there s a border to somewhere waiting,
D                        Gand there s a tankful of time
                  C              D                       GOh, give me just another moment, to see the light of the day,
                C                  D               Gand take me to another land where, I don t have to stay

Em               D                C                 GAnd I m going to need somebody to make me feel like you do
Em           D                   CAnd I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes,
Am                                                   DOpen up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
Em             DFor crying out loud,
           Gyou know I love you
Em             DFor crying out loud,
           Gyou know I love you
Em             DFor crying out loud,
           C    G   Em Am G D you know I love you

G                EmI was damned and you were saved,
Am               Dand I never knew how enslaved,
      GI was kneeling;
       Em           C     Din the chains of my master

G                 EmI could laugh but you could cry,
Am               Dand I never knew just how high,
      GI was flying;
         Em         C      Dah, with you right above me

            C          D      GAnd the now chilly California wind,
   C                D       Gis blowing down our bodies again
         Am      Em         Am              G                 DAnd were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand
      C          Am     Em             GOh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
    Em               Am          D         AmAnd can t you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
    EmAnd don t you hear me crying;
   GOh babe, don t go?
AmAnd don t you hear me screaming;
DHow was I to know?
