LET ME INTO YOUR HEART (Mary Chapin Carpenter)

[Actually in C; capo 5.]
[Each chord is two beats.]

                
[intro]

                                     
You're like a cool breeze to a hot spell
                                   
You're like a long drink to a dry well
                                
Oh I know by now, there's no use thinking
                                           
That it's something in that water I've been drinking
                                   
Cause I would not need even one more drop
                                  
If you'd just let me into your heart

You're like a blue sky to a gray day
You're like a new try to an old way
Oh, I never needed much convincing
'Bout that something in my life that's been missing
But I think I know where to find that part
If you'd just let me into your heart

                                   
I've got a past baby, now who doesn't
                                    
I won't ask you to think that I wasn't
                           
Who I was back then,  yes it's true
                             
But that was when I didn't know you

You're like a sweet sight to these tired eyes
You're like the first light after a long night
Oh I never believed in the hands of fate
But to be with you, baby, I believe I'd wait
Till the end of time for a chance to start
If you'd just let me into your heart

                  [stop] ()               
You're like a sweet smile to these tired eyes
                                      
You're like the last mile on a long ride
                                [you can sub  for ]
Oh I never believed in the arms of fate
                                    
But to be in yours darling, I believe I'd wait
                                   
Till the end of time for a chance to start
                                  
If you'd just let me into your heart
                                
Till the end of time, baby I can start
                                  
If you'd just let me into your heart
