Chords and lyrics for Swept Away by Christopher Cross (key of E).
Intro
[E] [A] [E] [A]
Verse
[E]I never had anything happen so fast[A]
[E]I took one look and I shattered like glass[A]
[E]I guess I let it show 'cause your [A]smile
Told me you [E]knew[A]
That you’re [E]everything I ever wanted at once[A]
There’s [E]no holding this heart when it knows [A]what it wants
And I never [E]wanted anything[A] more than to know[E]
Chorus
[E]I was swept[G#m] away
No [A]one in the world but [E]you and I
Gotta[F#m] find a way to [G#m]make you feel
The way I[B] do
I [E]was swept[G#m] away
Without a [A]warning
[C#m]Like night when the morning [A]begins the day
[F#m]I was [B]swept away[E]
Verse
[E]And so it begins, [A]the journey[E] of love[A]
The [E]summer wind carries us to [A]places
All our [E]own[A]
The [E]words of a [A]look, the language of [E]touch[A]
The way that you [E]want me means so [A]much
And I never [E]wanted anything[A] more
Than to love[E] you...
Chorus
[E]Can't you see that? I was swept away[G#m]
No [A]one in the world but [E]you and I
Gotta[F#m] find a way to [G#m]make you feel
The way I[B] do
I [E]was swept[G#m] away
Without a [A]warning
[C#m]Like night when the morning [A]begins the day
[F#m]I was [B]swept away[E]
[G#m]Seeing [A]my tomorrow in[E] your eyes
[F#m]I was [B]swept away[E]
Bridge
[G#m]Ooh, I hope I wake up [F#m]soon
[G#m]Oohh, I’m a victim [F#m]of that [A]crazy moon
Verse
The [E]very first time you [A]said my name
I [E]knew it would never [A]sound the same
[E]Something about me has [A]changed [E]forever
Chorus
[E]Can't you see I am swept away[G#m]
No [A]one in the world but [E]you and I
Gotta[F#m] find a way to [G#m]make you feel
The way I[B] do
I [E]was swept[G#m] away
Without a [A]warning
[C#m]Like night when the morning [A]begins the day
[F#m]I was [B]swept away[E]
[G#m]Seeing [A]my tomorrow in[E] your eyes
[F#m]I was swept [B]away
[E]Without[G#m] a [A]warning
[C#m]Like night when the morning begins the [A]day
[F#m]I was[B] [E]swept away
[A]We [F#m]were [B]swept [E]away
[A]Dreaming[F#m] of [B]you, swept [E]away
