WHERE TIME STANDS STILL (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-----------------------------------------------

G      G - Gmaj7      C       C/D - D
[intro]
G      Gmaj7          C       C/D - D
[intro]

G                    G                C(9)        D(9)
  Baby, where's that place where time stands still
                  G         G                       C(9)       D7/F#
I remember like a lover can, but I forget it like a leaver will
G                       Gmaj7     C(9)     D(9)
  It's no place you can get to by yourself; you've gotta love someone and
G             Gmaj7                C(9)        D(9)
they love you;  Time will stop for nothing else

F(9)         F(9)         C/E                     C/E
Memory plays tricks on us; the more we cling, the less we trust
        F(9)               F(9)                 Am(9)           C/D   -   D
And the less we trust, the more we hurt; and as time goes on it just gets worse

G(9)                    Gmaj7            C(9)        Cm6
  So baby, where's that place where time stood still
                    G            Cm6                   G              G
Is it under glass inside a frame, was it over when you had your fill?

G         G             C        C/D - D
[instrumental]
G - G/F#  G/E - G/D     C        G  -  D
[instrumental]
Em7       Bm7  -  G     C        G
[instrumental]
G         C             G        D  -  Em7
[instrumental]

F(9)             F(9)             C/E         C/E
Here we are with nothing but this emptiness inside of us
  F(9)               F(9)           Am(9)              C/D  -   D
Your smile a fitting final gesture, wish I could have loved you better

G(9)                 Gmaj7            C(9)         Cm6
  Baby, where's that place where time stands still
                  G         Cm6                     G           Cm6
I remember like a lover can, but I forget it like a leaver will
                             G            Cm6
It's the first time that you held my hand, it's the smell and the
    G                            Cm6
    taste, and the feel, and the thrill
                  G          Cm6
It's everything I understand, and all the things I
     G             Gmaj7      C     Cm6     G.
    never will  [instrumental]
