Yes I Am - Melissa Etheridge
by Steve Vetter [vetters@vax1.elon.edu]

It got a lot easier to figure out the lyrics when I remembered they were in
the book!  Next time I go to the music store that has this book I will update
it to be more correct.



              (fast)
Intro:  G     F C G

G                                    F C G
In these day and these hours of fury
G                                     F C G
when the darkness and answers are thin
G                                    F C G
lovers come and check out in a hurry
G                       F C Em
shallow and hollow again
Em                 C
come lay your body beside me
Em                     C
to dream to sleep with the lamb
 
These Em's and C's should be C7s.
 
Em                             C
to the question your eyes seem to send


          G             C             F
am I your passion, your promise, your end?
           ^             ^             ^
           Em            Em            C
 
 
           G
I say I am
        C
yes I am
        G
yes I am
        C
yes I am
          G             C             Em
I am your passion, your promise, your end
                         ^              ^
                         D              C9
G
yes I am

[same pattern as verse 1]
 
The rest looks correct, more or less...
