James Vernon Taylor nació el 12 de marzo de 1948 y es un cantautor y guitarrista. Nació en Belmont, Massachusetts.  La carrera de Taylor comenzó a mediados de los años 60, pero encontró su público a inicios de los 70 cantando canciones acústicas suaves y sensibles. Taylor fue parte de una ola de cantautores suaves de ese tiempo, donde podemos incluir a Carole King, Joni Mitchell, John Denver, Jackson Browne entre otros. También podemos encontrar a Carly Simon dentro de esta ola, con quien se casó más tarde. 

A live version of one of James' most popular concert tunes.  Just like you remember... This was a tribute to the birth of his brother &amp; sister  in-law's son, As James has said recently this was a lifetime ago and now he is bigger and older than me, I somehow doubt it but as he say's it's a good story anyway !

[A]Just yesterday [G]morning 
They let me [D]know you were [A]gone 
Susanne the [E]plans they made put an [G]end to you 
I [A]walked out this [G]morning
And I [D]wrote down this [A]song 
I just can't [E]remember who to [G]send it to 

[D]Oh, I've seen [E7]fire and I've seen [A]rain 
I've seen [D]sunny days that I [E7]thought would never [A]end 
I've seen [D]lonely times when I [E7]could not find a [A]friend 
But I [G]always thought that I'd [Em]see you [A]again 

[A]Won't you look down upon me, [G]Jesus 
You've got to [D]help me make a [A]stand 
You've just got to [E]see me through [G]another day 
[A]My body's [G]aching and my [D]time is at [A]hand 
And I won't [E]make it any [G]other way 

[D]Oh, I've seen [E7]fire and I've seen [A]rain 
I've seen [D]sunny days that I [E7]thought would never [A]end 
I've seen [D]lonely times when I [E7]could not find a [A]friend 
But I [G]always thought that I'd [Em]see you [A]again


Been [A]walking my mind to an [G]easy time
My [D]back turned towards the [A]sun 
Lord knows when the [E]cold wind blows
It'll [G]turn your head around 
Well, there's [A]hours of time on the [G]telephone line
To [D]talk about things to [A]come 
Sweet dreams and [E]flying machines in [G]pieces on the ground 

[D]Oh, I've seen [E7]fire and I've seen [A]rain 
I've seen [D]sunny days that I [E7]thought would never [A]end 
I've seen [D]lonely times when I [E7]could not find a [A]friend 
But I [G]always thought that I'd see you baby, [Em]one more time [A]again

When I got [G] something to [A] say [D]
Don't I [Bm] always let you [G] know
So that [Bm] you and I can [G] go my way
[Em] Forev - [D] -ver

And if I get [G] carried [A] away [D]
I could [Bm] sailing on a [G] song
And [Bm] maybe we could [G] carry on
[Em] Forev - [D] - ver

But [G] lately [A] this old dog [D]
Has been cha - [Bm] - sing his tail [G]
[G] Round and [A] round and round [D]
And the [G] circles [A] in my [D] mind
They have been [Bm] winding [D] slowly [G] Down [D]
[G] Everybody's bree -  [Bm] - zing up,
But I'm [D] seizing up
I'm [Bm] freezing up
And I'm [G] fading, [Em] fading a - [D] - way.
 
Well, I got a [G] on a [A] night in June [D]
I got [Bm] room for you and [G] me
I got [Bm] moonlight up in the [G] trees
I got [Em] sixty-eight de -  [D] - grees

I got [G] nothing on [A] my mind [D]
But I got [Bm] loving in my [G] heart
And I got [Bm] something out in the [G] garden
I want to [Em] show [D]

[G] Well, it [A]doesn't really [D] matter after - [Bm] - all [G]
If we [G] quit this [A] round - [D] - about
'Cause [G] no one will [A] really no - [D] - tice
If we just [Bm] sit this [D] next one out [G] [D]
Well, you can [G] strike up the [Bm] band with - [D] - out me
You may [Bm] have your doubts [G] about me
But I'm just [Em] fading a - [D] - way
You can [Bm] hardly even [G] see me
'Cause I'm [Em] fading away. [D]

Well, it's [A] hard to [B] find a la - [E] bel,

And there ain't [Cm]nothing up [E]my [A]sleeve [E].
[A]And here I thought I was a[Cm] thinking man
But I'm a [E]shrinking man
I'm [Cm]sinking man
And I'm [Bm]fading, I'm [E]fading away
Well, it's [Cm] really not so [E] bad to be [Bm] fading a - [E] - way
[Cm] C'mon along with [E] me and we'll go [Bm] fading away
You can [Cm] hardly even [E] hear me

Sorry I couldn't figure out the chords in the original song, nor in the Kris Allen version, but here's what I wrote

Intro: Dm, Bb, Dm, C
 
Dm
In the night I hear 'em talk,

Bb
The coldest story ever told,

Dm
Somewhere far along this road

C
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

Dm, Bb, Dm, C (it continues like this for the rest of the song, the rest is just the lyrics)

How could you be so,
Cold as the winter wind when it breeze yo
Just remember that you talking to me yo
You need to watch the way you talking to me you know
I mean after all the things that we been through
I mean after all the things we got into
And yo I know of some things that you ain't told me
And yo I did some things but that's the old me
And now you wanna get me back
And you gon' show me
So you walk around like you don't know me
You got a new friend
Well I got homies
But in the end it's still so lonely

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?


How could you be so Dr. Evil
You're bringing out a side of me that I don't know
I decided we weren't gonna speak so why we up 3 a.m. on the phone
Why does she be so mad at me for, homie I don't know she's hot and cold
I won't stop, won't mess my groove up cause I already know how this thing goes,
You run and tell your friends that you're leavin' me
They say that they don't see what you see in me
You wait a couple months then you gon' see,
You'll never find nobody better than me

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?


Talkin', talkin', talkin', talk,
Baby lets just knock it off
They don't know what we been through
They don't know 'bout me and you
So I got something new to see
And you just gon' keep hatin' me
And we just gon' be enemies
I know you can't believe
I could just leave it wrong
and you can't make it right
Im gon' take off tonight
Into the night...

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

Song No. 6

Am                              Am
       In a Manner of speaking 
                     Am/G
I just want to say
                    Am/G                 F
That I could never forget the way
                      Dm
You told me everything
                  E7/G#
By saying nothing

Am                              Am
        In a manner of speaking
                  Am/G
I don't understand
                  Am/G                           F
How love in silence becomes reprimand
                            Dm
But the way that i feel about you
     E7/G# 
Is beyond words

  Am               Am/G
O give me the words
                      F                  Dm
Give me the words
                    E7/G#
That tell me nothing
Am               Am/G
O give me the words
                      F                  Dm
Give me the words
                   E7/G#
That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking
Semantics won't do
In this life that we live we live we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrified
So in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
That just like you I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing.

O give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing
O give me the words...
Give me the words
Give me the words

best with Low G

In A Manner Of Speaking

[Intro]
C          Em                  Am              F
Feels like,  I'm standing in a timeless dream
  C         Em               Am    F
A light mist   of pale amber rose
C          Em              Am            F
Feels like,  I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Am       G            F
Touching,  discovering you


[Verse 1]
C           Em                  Am              F
Those days,  of warm rains come rushing back to me
         C        Em              Am   F
Miles of windless,   summer night air
       C       Em             Am              F
Secret moments,   shot in the heat of the afternoon
           C        Em             Am     F
Out of the stillness,   soft spoken words


[Chorus]
C
I love you always forever
F
Near and far, closer together
C
Everywhere, I will be with you
F
Everything, I will do for you

[Verse 2]
C         Em                       Am             F
You've got,  the most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen
C         Em                   Am    F
You've got, me almost melting away
      C        Em                      Am           F
As we lay there,   under a blue sky of pure white stars
          C        Em             Am    F
It's like sweetness,  and magical time


[Chorus]
C
I love you always forever
F
Near and far, closer together
C
Everywhere, I will be with you
F
Everything, I will do for you

I love you always forever
F
Near and far, closer together
C
Everywhere, I will be with you
F
Everything, I will do for you
