[Intro].:  (C) x 4 bars 

The (C)secret way long shadows bleed into the night 
The desperate way leaves in the fall hold colors tight 
The (Dm)way that thunder knows the taste of (G)summer rain 
I knew (C)you that way 

The (C)way cool mountain waters dance down to the sea 
Bound by something strong, but still so wild and free 
It (Dm)gives into the passion of the (G)path it takes 
I knew (C)you that way 



[Refrão]
I (F)held you closer (Dm)than I had a (C)right to hold 
But the (Dm)only thing that (Am)time can't take a-(G)way 
Is I knew (C)you that way 

The (C)way that skin on skin can start a crazy fire 
That no one sees but burns all night long with desire 
The (Dm)quiet ease that makes a lover (G)wanna stay 
I knew (C)you that way

The (C)holy way that love knows it should never end 
The sacred way that stars guide sailors home again
