G          Em7            G
I made the call just too late
       C   D  G
At the end of May
       Em7              G
I just thought I could wait
    C   D    Em7
For one more day
       C         G
In the time that passed
         C  D    Em7
You went down so fast

( C  G )

         D       G
You went down so fast

G         D                Am
Out of my reach, out of my hands
C             G
I didn't understand
             D              Am     C
I would have changed all my plans

G        Em7              G
An empty house, a setting sun
   C    D G
At four a.m.
             Em7                G
Some battles fought are battles won
     C         D      Em7
But this ain't one of them
         C      G
One more shadow cast
         C    D  Em7
You went down so fast

( C  G )

         D       G
You went down so fast

G         D                Am
Out of my reach, out of my hands
  C          G
I didn't understand
             D              Am     C  G
I would have changed all my plans
          D                Am     C
Out of my reach, out of my hands

G       Em7                G
Now the leaves are turning brown
  C     D   G
I watch 'em blow
          Em7              G
Where the earth pulls them down
  C   D   Em7
I let you go

        C      G
As your breath unwinds
            C    D     Em7   C
Through the restless pines

G         D                Am
Out of my reach, out of my hands
  C            G
I didn't understand
              D          Am       C
I would have changed all my plans
             G
I would have changed
          D               Am
Out of my reach, out of my hands
  C            G
I didn't understand
              D          Am         C
I would have changed all my plans
              G
I would have changed
