Hope Alone

Indigo Girls

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Em C D (1)Bm/G

VERSE 2: (same as verse 1)

I know I'm a dreamer

So I'll give you that

Still I hope I'm more than just a place

You laid your hat

You're a land of secrets

Its only citizen

and though I paid my dues

I was never allowed in

BRIDGE: (same)

And so I am a stranger

Especially today

Cause I get sad and lonely

And you get your way

CHORUS: (same)

You

Were looking for your distance

And sensing my resistance

You had to do your will

I

I had to learn the hard way

That we were just an empty dream too big

For hope alone to fill

MIDDLE:

F

Holding on for change i know

D G

We never stood a chance

F

So I could only wait

D

And watch you slip right through my hands

CHORUS:

Em C

You

D (2)Bm/G

Were always looking for your distance

C (2)Bm/G

And sensing my resistance

Asus D

You had to do your will

Em C

I

D (2)Bm/G

I had to learn the hard way

C (2)Bm/G Am

We were just an empty dream too big

Cm

For hope alone to fill

OUTRO:

C (2)Bm/G Am D
