INTRO: 1, 2m, 5, 1
1
Where the earth shows it's bones of wind-broken stone
5And the sea and the sky are one
I'm caught out of time, my blood sings with wine
5And I'm running naked in the sun
1There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees
And the sky is a painful blue
2m 4 5 1 ( 4, 1, 5 )
I'd like to look around, but Honey, all I see is you
1
The summer city lights will soften the night
5Till you'd think that the air is clear
And I'm sitting with friends where forty-five cents
5Will buy another glass of beer
1He's got something to say, but I'm so far away
That I don't know who I'm talking to
2m 4 5 1Cause you just walked in the door, and Honey, all I see is you
CHORUS (after verses 2 and 3):
4And I just want to hold you closer
Than I've ever held any-one be-fore
4 1You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life
2m 5Ah but Honey, what the hell's it for
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find
1 4 1A way to let you know some-how
2m / 5 1 ( )That I want to see your smiling face forty-five years from now

FORTY-FIVE YEARS PAGE TWO
So a-lone in the lights on stage every night
5I've been reaching out to find a friend
2m 4Who knows all the words, sings so she's heard
And knows how all the stories end
1Maybe after the show she'll ask me to go
5Home with her for a drink or two
Now her smile lights her eyes, but Honey all I see is you
4
And I just want to hold you closer
1 4 1Than I've ever held any-one be-fore
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life
2m 5Ah but Honey, what the hell's it for
4After twenty-three years you'd think I could find
A way to let you know some-how
