This is an amazing song...I highly recommend this CD to anyone and
everyone, even though it got horrible reviews...Anyway, these are just
the chords...To get the right sound, strum the chord and then pick the
chord....its two guitars on the CD, but you get the feel of the song
this way as well.  This is all by ear, so if something isn’t working for
you, write back and I’ll change it, but I think this is pretty close to
the real thing...

Lyrics

How come, girl was there when I needed one
How come, girl was there when the song is done
Some say, open your eyes to a brighter light
Okay, open my arms they were right

She was my soul one
She left she was the only one
She was the sun, the sky blue eyes
She was my soul one

Inside, pain in my heart often made her cry
Outside, I cursed the birds and the sugar sky
How long, take to realize she’s the one
How long, until I find my last and lonely soul one

She was my soul one
She left she was the only one
She was the sun, the sky blue eyes
She was my soul one

Should of never taken the time
’Cause I found myself living a lonely lie
You said, you left to find yourself
But I never, no I never got the chance to say goodbye

She was my soul one
I thought she was the only one
I thought she was . . .
