-CAPO ON THE 3RD FRET-

 G         Em     D      G 
Hey hey hey, the end is near!
     Em  
On a good day,
Am                D       Em
you can see the end from here.
       G              Em
But I won't turn back, now,
           D       Em
though the way is clear;
       G         Em   D    G   
I will stay for the remainder.


 G         Em     D      G
I saw a life, and I called it mine.
   Em      Am         D       Em
I saw it, drawn so sweet and fine,
      G     Em              D       Em
and I had begun to fill in all the lines,
       G      Em         D   G
right down to what we'd name her.


 G         Em        D        G
Our nature does not change by will.
        Em      Am         D     Em
In the winter, 'round the ruined mill,
     G       Em      D       Em
the creek is lying, flat and still;
        G
it is water,
  Em         D  G
though it's frozen.


 G              Em
So, 'cross the years,
     D           G
and miles, and through,
      Em 
on a good day,
 Am              D       Em
you can feel my love for you.
          G     Em
Will you leave me be,
            D        Em
so that we can stay true
        G        Em        D  G
to the path that you have chosen?
