A E
Sometimes in the middle of the night I reach for you in my dreams
A
Then I lay awake till the morning light tired of remembering
The river runs wide here, the river runs deep
E
I'd give that river my soul to keep
A
If I could only finally sleep awhile
D
That'll be me howling in the wind
A
Every time I come across your tracks again
E A
Tell me how long has it been Since I've been free
D A
If you see a fire on the mountain side All around the places I used to
hide
E
That'll be me
D A
That'll be me

D A
You and I we're gypsy born Under the same old sign
If my tears for you are a thunderstorm

My love is the sweet sunshine
But you can't run far enough
A D
To ever quite outrun my love I know who you're thinking of tonight
G
That'll be me walking through your mind
D
Talking to your heart most all the time
A D
Stirring up memories of mine Like a gentle breeze
G
If you hear somebody singing you this song
D
Like they could sing it to you all night long
A
That'll be me
G D
That'll be me
