voice. take care, from Gemma xxx


Intro:

C  F Am G
C  F G  C
C  F Am G F

Verse 1:
     Am
In a time
          Em             Am
Where the sun descends alone,
         C          G        Am
I ran a long, long way from home
           Em                    D
To find a heart that's made of stone.


Verse 2:
       Am
I will try,
        Em             Am
I just need a little time
             C         G          Am
To get your face right out of my mind,
            Em                       D
To see the world through different eyes.


Chorus:
C              F             Am     G
  Every time I see you, oh I try to hide away,
C              F              G        C
  But when we meet it seems I can't let go.
C                 F
  Every time you leave the room
     Am       G             F       G
  I feel I'm fading like a flower...


Verse 3:
        Am
Tell me why
        Em                  Am
When I scream there's no reply,
        C                G           Am
When I reach out there's nothing to find,
        Em                      D
When I sleep I break down and cry,
D
Cry, yeah.


[Repeat chorus]


Bridge:
                 Am G C F
  Fading like a rose,
                 Am G C F
  Fading like a rose,
                 Am G C F
  Beaten by the storm,
                E
  Talking to myself,
                         E7
  Getting washed by the rain,
                          Am
  It's such a cold, cold town.
  C                G         Am
  Oh, it's such a cold, cold town.


C  G  Am
C  G  D

[Chorus (soft)]


Chorus 2:
D               G             Bm     A
  Every time I see you, oh I try to hide away,
D              G               A        D
  But when we meet it seems I can't let go.
D                 G
  Every time you leave the room
     Bm       A
  I feel I'm fading like a...
