Always On Your Side

INTRO:  Bb/F  F  Bb/F  F

VERSE:

    Bb/F             F             Bb/F         F
 My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
Dm                Dm/C              G/B
 But ev'ry now and then you come to mind
Bb                     F             Dm                 G7
 Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
               Bb                    C               Dm    Dm/C
 But when your name was called, you found a place to hide
          Bb               C             Bb/F  F  Bb/F   F
 When you knew that I was always on your side

VERSE: (STING)

      Bb/F            F            Bb/F          F
 Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
Dm              Dm/C         G/B
 my demons and my angels reappeared
Bb             F            Dm                 G7
 Leavin' only traces of the man you thought I'd be
      Bb                 C                Dm     Dm/C
 To afraid to hear the words I'd always feared
         Bb            C                  Bb/F   F  Bb/F  F
 Leavin' you with only questions all these years

Chorus:

     Dm                               A7/C#
 Now is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
F/C                          G
 Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
    Bb                           Eb
 Or are you left to wander, all alone, eternally
       Gm                     F/A     Bb
 This isn't how it's really meant to be
F/A     Gm                    F/A      Csus  C
 No it isn't how it's really meant to be

VERSE:
            Bb               F         Bb/F          F
 Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear,
Dm                Dm/C              G/B
 How to pull it close and make it stay
Bb                    F              Dm          G7
 If butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away
         Bb            C              Dm  Dm/C
 And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
         Bb                C             Bb/F  F  Bb/F  F
 Even through it all, I'm always on your side

     Dm                                A7/C#
 But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
F/C                          G
 Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
    Bb                         Eb
 Or are we left to wander, all alone, eternally
      Gm                     F/A     Bb
 This isn't how it's really meant to be
F/A     Gm                    F/A      Csus  C
 No it isn't how it's really meant to be

VERSE:
            Bb               F         Bb/F          F
 Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear,
Dm                Dm/C              G/B
 How to pull it close and make it stay
Bb                    F              Dm          G7
 If butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away
         Bb          C              Dm  Dm/C
 Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why
        Bb                 C                    Dm   Dm/C
 Was it you that kept me wondering through this life
          Bb                C      Bb/F       F   Bb/F   F  Bb  C  Eb  Bb/D  F
 When you know that I was always on your side
