SHE /LEI - Elvis Costello, Charles Aznavour, Laura Pausini



[Intro]

C C/E F G
 
C                            C/A
She may be the face I can't forget 
                           F
The trace of pleasure or regret 
                           C              A
Maybe my treasure or the price I have to pay
Dm                                Fm
She may be the song that summer sings 
                               C
May be the chill that autumn brings 
                             F/G
May be a hundred different things
              G          C        F   G
Within the measure of a day 

C                            C/A
She may be the beauty or the beast 
                          F
May be the famine or the feast 
                          C           A
May turn each day into a Heaven or a Hell 
Dm                           Fm
She may be the mirror of my dreams
                         C
A smile reflected in a stream 
                             F/G
She may not be what she may seem 
        G    C        F   G
Inside her shell.... 


[Instrumental]

C C/A F C A Dm Fm C F G C C7

 G#                                   D#
She, who always seems so happy in a crowd 
                                      C# 
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud 
                               C
No one's allowed to see them when they cry 
Fm              Bb               D#
She maybe the love that cannot hope to last 
            C                       D
May come to me from shadows in the past
          D                      G    
That I remember 'till the day I die

C                          C/A 
She maybe the reason I survive 
                            F
The why and wherefore I'm alive 
                                  C             A  
The one I care for through the rough and ready years 
Dm                                  Fm
Me, I'll take the laughter and her tears 
                           C
And make them all my souvenirs
                               D   
For where she goes I've got to be
            G
The meaning of my life is 
F      C   Fm   
She....She 
G    C
Oh, she....

Lei, forse sara' la prima che, Io non potro' dimenticar, La mia fortuna o il prezzo che, dovro' pagar,
Lei, la canzone nata qui, Che ha gia' cantato chissa' chi, L'aria d'estate che ora c'e' Nel primo autunno su di me. Lei, la schiavitu' la liberta', Il dubbio la serenita' Preludio a giorni luminosi oppure bui, Lei, sara' lo specchio dove io, Riflettero' progetti e idee Il fine ultimo che avro', da ora in poi. Lei, cosi' importante cosi' unica, Dopo la lunga solitudine, Intransigente e imprevedibile, Lei, forse l'amore troppo atteso che, Dall'ombra del passato torna a me, Per starmi accanto fino a che vivro' Lei, a cui io non rinuncerei, Sopravvivendo accanto a lei, Ad anni, combattuti ed avversita' Lei, sorrisi e lacrime da cui, Prendono forma i sogni miei, Ovunque vada arriverei, A passo a passo accanto a lei. Lei, lei, lei.
