One Sweet Day

Mariah Carey

Tom: G#

(intro) ( G#  C#  F#  Eb )

G#              C#
Sorry I never told you
G#                C#
All I wanted to say
G#                        C#
And now it's too late to hold you
       F#
'cause you've flown away
  Eb
So far away
G#             C#
Never had I imagined
G#                  C#
Living without your smile
G#                    C#
Feeling and knowing you hear me
       F#
It keeps me alive
   Eb
Alive

(chorus 1)

        G#                                 C#
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Eb7       G#                              C#
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
Eb7    G#                        C#
And I know eventually we'll be together
          F#    Eb
One sweet day
                         G#
Eventually we'll sing in heaven

G#              C#
Darling I never showed you
G#                     C#
Assumed you'd always be there
G#                          C#
And I took your presence for granted
       F#
But I always cared
       Eb
And I miss the love we shared

(repeat chorus 1)

C#  C7      Fm
Although the sun will never shine the same
C#           Eb                G#
I'll always look to a brighter day
C     C7         Fm
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
                 Bb7        Eb
You will always listen as I pray

(chorus 2 - 2x)

F#7       B                                   E
   And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
F#7      B                                   E
   Like so many friends we've lost along the way
F#7       B                          E
   And I know eventually we'll be together
           A    F#
One sweet day

B               E
Sorry I never told you
B                E
All I wanted to say
