* Song: * Album: * Version: * Interpretation: * Tuning: * Notes: You couldn't have come at a better time Riverside 3 / 3 »»» Peter Donnelly (peter.donnelly@eurocontrol.be) D A D G A D This is normally played with a Capo on V. The chords should be played high on the neck. In this version, if you play the chords low down for the verse you get a very rythmic "Bodhran" effect and then change to higher on the neck for variation for the chorus.

You couldn't have come at a better time

INTRO:  D (Dum de de de de, Dum de de de etc.),

VERSE:
      G                    D       C                     D
Where is this place we've come to, I don't know what to say
    G                 D               C               D
We long to see each other and are frightened of that day
     G             D           G                    D
You met me in a barren place, you walked me to the hill.
        G                  D         C                    D
We were so good for each other then, I know we could be still.


CHORUS:
       G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time
       G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time
       G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time
             C'   /  D'
Not if you tried, oh no
             C'   /  D'
Not if you tried, oh no


    G       D            C            D
We had 500 questions, between you and me.
          G            D             C                D
When you look into my eyes my love, tell me what you see.
          G                 D               G                D  
Is it something you're not sure of is it something true and fine.
G                D                  C                 D      
Or is it just another case of the right face at the wrong time.


    G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time
    G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time
    G          /            D'    \   C'  /  D'
You couldn't have come at a better time


BRIDGE:
      Em               D                Em             D
Since we were first together, at the lakeside sky so blue.
        Em                D
We were so good for each other
C'      /      D'     \       C'     /       D'     \      C'
me and you and me and you and me and you and me and yoooooou
