E---2-------2----- B-------3--------- G-----2-------2--- D---0-----0------- A------------ E------------ She was a woman troubled like a river  Trees all around her  But I only ever came near enough  To hear her voice  On the outside        She was a woman inside a castle  Knights all around her  And I never found myself strong enough  To reach and touch  From the outside  And every time I tried to swim across  I though I’d drown  And every time I tried to climb that wall  I thought I’d fall  On the outside She was a woman frozen in a picture  Frozen there forever  With a smile that keeps me so warm inside  But still I had  On the outside        She was a woman farther than forever  Nearer not together  And I only wish I was back in time  ’Cause she’d be mine  On the outside  But every time I tried to find the love  I left behind  And every time I tried to make her mine  Again I’d find myself  On the outside
