[Intro 1]
[C][G][F][C]

[Verse 1]
You've been [C]a friend of mine
[G]for[F] so- o many year- ears
When I [C]first came to Vancouver [F]with dreams
twisting in fear- [Dm]ear
And oh [F]Jean, [G]fri[Abdim]ends are
[E]like rare [Am]stones
[F#dim]Increas ing in their v[Am]alue when reali[G]zed
they can't [E]be owned[Am][G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4]
[C]And I'd write songs only when the pain
became too [F]obvious inside
When [C]the screaming in my soul
left me no- [F]o place to hide

[Verse 2]
And [Dm]whoa [F]Jean,
[G]lov[Abdim]e is like a prayer[Am]
So [F#dim]afraid of your own questions as you stand
[G]unanswered the[Abdim]re- ere- [Am]ere[G][Am][G][Am]
Still you walk the other way
[Em]rather than risk rejection
Watch the [Am]wind blow all hope away as
[Em]you crawl into yourself for protection
[F]Still I try to make you[F#dim] see there's so
much more I've gotta be
[D]Oh [G]don't turn away, don't lose to the cold,
[F]don[Dm]'t leave me here- ere[G] to die alone

[Verse 3]
[Dm]A little of your love couldn't
[G]hurt me none
Let it [Dm]shine on through like
[G]rays from the sun
[Dm]And a little of my love
couldn't [G]hurt you none
Let it [Am]run beside you,
let it flow inside you, let it [G]purify
[C]You break down and I stumble for
the [F]right words of consolation
[C]The circle of love spins round and round
[F]searchin' for new destinations

[Verse 4]
[Dm]Whoa Jean,[F]
[G]lif[E]e is like the sea- ea[Am]
[F#dim]Trapped within it's shorelines we're still strug
[G]glin' to break [Abdim]free[E][Am][G][Gsus4][G]
[Am]Still we walk the other way
[Em]rather than risk rejection
Watch the [Am]wind blow all hope away as
[Em]we crawl into ourselves for protection
[F]Still I try to make you see,
[F#dim]I love you so it frightens me
Whoa, [G]don't turn away, don't lose to the cold,
[F]nob[Dm]ody wants to [G]die alone

[Verse 5]
[Dm]A little of your love couldn't
[G]hurt me none
[Dm]Let it shine on through like
[G]rays from the sun
[Dm]And a little of my love
couldn't [G]hurt you no- one
Let it [Am]run beside you,
let it flow inside [G]you

[Outro 1]
