5 Days In May Chords

[Intro]
Em  D  Am  C  x2
 
[Verse 1]
Em
They met in a hurricane
D
Standing in the shelter out of the rain
Am                         C
She tucked a note into his hand
Em
Later on they took his car
D
Drove on down where the beaches are
Am                       C
He wrote her name in the sand
G          F             C    D
Never even let go of her hand
 
[Interlude]
Em  D  Am  C
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Somehow they stayed that way
D
For those 5 days in May
Am                         C
Made all the stars around them shine
Em
Funny how you can look in vain
D
Living on nerves and such sweet pain
Am                       C
The loneliness that cuts so fine
G          F             C    D
To find the face you've seen a thousand times
 
[Chorus]
C
Sometimes the world begins
C
To set you up on your feet again
Bm                           D
It wipes the tears from your eyes
C
How will you ever know
C
The way that circumstances go
Bm                            D
Always going to hit you by surprise
  Am
I know my past
G/B
You were there
   C               Em7/C
In everything I've done
 
You are the one
 
[Instrumental]
Em  D  Am  C  x4
 
[Verse 3]
Em
 Looking back it's hard to tell
D
Why they stood while others fell
Am                         C
 Spend your life working it out
Em
 All I know is one cloudy day
D
 They both just ran away
Am                       C
Rain on the windshield heading south
G          F             C    D
She loved the lines around his mouth
 
[Chorus]
C
Sometimes the world begins
C
To set you up on your feet again
Bm                           D
It wipes the tears from your eyes
C
How will you ever know
C
The way that circumstances go
Bm                            D
Always going to hit you by surprise
  Am
I know my past
G/B
You were there
   C               Em7/C
In everything I've done
            Em
You are the one
