There is a version of this already posted. I play it very differently and
decided
to contribute my version. It's simple, but it does the trick...at least for
me. :-)
So here it is.
What I Really Meant To Say
Cindy Thompson
Capo 1st Fret
Intro: C F
Verse 1:
F
It took me by surprise, when I saw you standing there
C
Close enough to touch, breathing the same air
F
You asked me how I've been
C G Am
I guess that's when I smiled and just said fine
G
Oh, but baby, I was lying
Chorus 1:
C G Am
What I really meant to say, is that I'm dying here inside
F
C
And I miss you more each day, there's not a night I haven't cried
G Am
And baby, here's the truth...I'm still in love with you
F C F
Yeah...that's what I really meant say
Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1:)
And as you walked away, the echo of my words
Cut just like a knife, cut so deep it hurt
I held back the tears, held onto my pride and watched you go
I wonder if you'll ever know
Chorus 2 (same chords and lyrics as chorus 1)
Chorus 3 (same chords as chorus 1, alternate lyrics:)
What I really meant to say, is I'm really not that strong
And no matter how I try, I'm still holding on
And here's the honest truth...I'm still in love with you
F C
That's what I really meant to say
F C
That's what I really meant to say
F C
That's what I really meant to say
Hope this works for you guys, too! Happy picking!
