Softly chords
Gordon Lightfoot 1967

Capo II

A Amaj7 *

A          Amaj7  Bm
Softly she comes
             E               A      Amaj7  Bm
Whispers the breeze with her passing
          E           A      A7  D
In secret love she is laughing
           Dm7          A     A Bm
Softly she comes in the night

A          Amaj7  Bm
Softly she sighs
            E          A       Amaj7  Bm
Sweetly she lies never sleeping
              E         A      A7 D
Her fragrance all in my keeping
           Dm7          A     A Bm A Bm
Softly she comes in the night

E
Down the darkened hall
           D               A
I hear her footsteps on my stair
                           E  E7
And she is in my arms once more

     A          Amaj7 Bm
Then softly she goes
            E           A      Amaj7 Bm
Her shining lips in the shadows
            E         A     A7 D
Whisper goodbye at my window
           Dm7         A   A Bm  D
Softly she goes in the dawn
           Dm7         A   A Bm  A
Softly she goes in the dawn
