It's Me (and I'm Ready To Go)

Chris De Burgh - It's Me (And I'm Ready To Go) CAPO: 5th Fret Intro: Am Dm C F E Am G Am D F Am The autumn leaves were falling G On these old cathedral walls Dm C There were candles in the darkness G Singing in the choir Am And reading out the names G Of all the ones who've gone before F Well, I could tell that you were thinking C G About the meaning of it all Chorus 1: F G And you said to me "Who will open up my eyes F C G To the wonder, and the glory, and the stars in the sky?" F G And you said to me "For this road I'm travelling on Em F C G F G F I need someone beside me forever. Who? Who?" Chorus 2: G C Dm G I said "It's me, and I'm ready to go E Am F Ready to show, that I'll never let you down C G And I want you to know, that this power will grow Am F Every day, every beat of my heart Am Forever, forever" We went down to the river G And we found a small café Dm They said that over in the corner C G Sat the writer Ernest Hemingway Am G And here he made his story of the lovers in the war F And through it all they stayed together C G 'Til the rain had to fall Chorus 1: F G And you said to me, "Who will be the one apart F C G Who will teach me, with conviction, all the ways of the heart?" F G And you said to me, "On this journey of my life, F C G F G F I need someone to love me forever. Who? Who?" Chorus 2: G C Dm G And I said, listen "It's me, and I'm ready to go E Am F Ready to show, that I'll never let you down C G And I want you to know, that this power will grow Am F Every day, every beat of my heart I love you, I love you" C Dm G E Am "It's me F And I'll never let you down C G And I want you to know, that this power will grow Am F Every day, every beat of my heart Forever, I love you, forever"
