I Was Brought To My Senses Chords

(ver. 2)
Sting
[Intro]
 Am7                        D
Alone with my thoughts this evening
  Am7                    D
I walked on the banks of Tyne
  Am7                  D
I wondered how I could win you
   Am7                 D
Or if I could make you mine
   Am7                 D
Or if I could make you mine
    Am7              D
The wind it was so insistent
     Am7               D
With tales of a stormy south
           Am7                  D
But when I spied two birds in a sycamore tree
             Am7           D
There came a dryness in my mouth
       Am7           D
Came a dryness in my mouth
    Am7                   D
For then without rhyme or reason
        Am7                  D
The two birds did rise up to fly
    Am7                      D
And where the two birds were flying
  Am7                 D
I swear I saw you and I
  Am7                 D
I swear I saw you and I

[Verse 1]
G                 G/B
I walked out this morning
              C                          D
It was like a veil had been removed from before my eyes
Em                                   Bm
For the first time I saw the work of heaven
       C                             D
In the line where the hills had been married to the sky
G                G/B
And all around me
      C                    D
Every blade of singing grass
    B/D#                 Em
Was calling out your name
             C                    D
And that our love would always last
G                G/B
And inside every turning leaf
       C                   D
Is the pattern of an older tree
    Em           Bm
The shape of our future
    C                D
The shape of all our history
G                 G/B
And out of the confusion
          C               D
Where the river meets the sea
     B7/D#            Em
Came things I'd never seen
C                D
Things I'd never seen


[Chorus]
      Em     Dm7    Cmaj7  B7#9
I was brought to my senses
      Em   Dm7           Cmaj7 B7#9
I was blind but now that I can see
      Em  Dm7        F7#9  B7#9
Every sign - post in na  - ture
     C   A    G
Said you be - long to me


[Verse 2]
  G/B
I know it's true
C                 D
It's written in a sky as blue
Em                 Bm
As blue as your eyes
   C            D
As blue as your eyes
G                  G/B
If nature's red in tooth and claw
     C                   D
Like winter's freeze and summer's thaw
    B7/D#           Em
The wounds she gave me
         C                      D
Were the wounds that would heal me
G                    G/B
And we'd be like the moon and sun
    C                D
And when our courtly dance had run
    Em                   Bm
Its course across the sky
     C                 D
Then together we would lie
    G          G/B
And out of the confusion
          C               D
Where the river meets the sea
          B7/D#          Em
Something new would arrive
          C              D
Something better would arrive


[Chorus]
      Em     Dm7    Cmaj7  B7#9
I was brought to my senses
      Em   Dm7           Cmaj7 B7#9
I was blind but now that I can see
      Em  Dm7     F7#9 B7#9
Every signpost in na - ture
     C   A    G    F#
Said you be - long to
      Em     Dm7    Cmaj7  B7#9
I was brought to my senses
      Em   Dm7           Cmaj7 B7#9
I was blind but now that I can see
      Em  Dm7     F7#9 B7#9
Every signpost in na - ture
     C   A    G    F#
Said you be - long to
      Em     Dm7    Cmaj7  B7#9
I was brought to my senses
      Em   Dm7           Cmaj7 B7#9
I was blind but now that I can see
      Em  Dm7     F7#9 B7#9
Every signpost in na - ture
     C   A    G    F# Em
Said you be - long to me
