C           Gm
Dying's not easy today
Trying but can't get away
Fm                             Db
Feel just the almost touch of her hand
                  F#
And the trees in her hair
Fm                             F#m         Fm 
Eyes flood the sun, she saw only me in the sky
F#m           Fm     Gm   Cm           
What could be higher than we

Cm Gm Cm Gm
Fm  Gm 

C              Gm 
Wind grows cold in the trees
C               Gm 
She cries so hard to please
Fm                              Db 
My restless feet, the rain in the street
F#             Db
And her Vanity Fair
Db             Fm                       F#m      F 
Sighs in the eyes of the boarding-house lady who stares
F#m        F Fm 
Thinking I care

(Guitar solo- )

Keep repeating

Fm./././ Gm 

C             Gm 
So it's a long dusty road
C                   Gm 
Feelings I shouldn't have showed
Fm                 
Follow me with a sweet bird
                  F#
When I'm ready to faint
Fm            Ab          F#m 
Lights like these burn so bright
F#m              Fm 
Keep me out of my shade
A           Fm Gm 
Wish I could fade

Fm           Gm 
Just see me fade
Just see me fade
Fm           Gm
Just see me fade
Just see me fade
Just see me fade
Fm      Gm 
See me fade
