Lyrics:

FOR YOU (Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Bruce Springsteen)  KAPO I

Intro: Am – G – F – G  (5x)   Am  – G – F  – G – C

C                               Em             Fmaj^G    G        Am

Princess cards she sends me,     with her regards,

    Dm                                 Am               Fmaj^G                             G    Am7/D   G^G

oh, bar-room eyes shine vacancy, to see her you gotta look hard.

C                             Em                   Fmaj^G                    G               Am

Wounded deep in battle, I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted,

            Dm                         Am                        Fmaj^G          G

to her cheshire smile I'll stand on file, she's all I ever wanted.

G  Am7/D  G   Fmaj^G        G               C                  Am

You let your blue walls get in the way of these facts,   honey

Fmaj^G           G                        C        Am

    Get your carpet baggers off my back.

Fmaj^G             G          C               Am

Girl, give me time to cover my tracks.  You said:

F                                               G

"Here's your mirror and your ball and jacks".

        Fmaj^G                                G

But they're not - what I came for,  

          Dm7                          G

oh, I came for - so much more,

          Dm7                              G           addA

and I know - you know that too,      I came for…

          Dm7                                 G         add A          Am    G

and I know - you know that's true!  I came for…

   F               Am    G   

I came for you,  

   F               Am    G

I came for you,  

    F            Am           Em_G      Dm7          F

I came for you,     for you,   I came for you!

C                      Em                       Fmaj^G         G        Am

Crawl into my ambulance, your pulse is getting weak,

   Dm                         Am               Fmaj^G                                       G   Am7/D   G^G

reveal yourself all to me now, while you've got the strength to speak.

                         C                            Em         Fmaj^G             G             Am

'Cause they're waiting for you at Bellevue,    with their oxygen masks,

      Dm                      Am                Fmaj^G                     G

But I could give it all to you now, if only you could ask.

G  Am7/D  G^G  Fmaj^G            G                     C                Am

              Don't call for your surgeon even he says it's late.

Fmaj^G          G                                           C                        Am

It's not your lungs this time - but your heart holds your fate.

Fmaj^G                       G                          C                Am

Don't give me my money back, don't want it anymore.

F                                                 G

   It's not that nursery mouth I came back for,

       F                                                     G

it's not the way you're stretched out on the floor.

        Fmaj^G                                                     G

I've broken all your windows and I've rammed through all your doors,

Dm7                                   G

Who am I to ask you - to fight my wars?

        Dm7                                   G          addA

And you should know - that's true,   I came for…

Dm7                                G          addA                Am    G

You should know - that too!   I came for…

   F               Am    G   

I came for you,  

   F               Am    G

I came for you,  

    F            Am           Em_G      Dm7          F

I came for you,     for you,   I came for you!
