Am    Dm    Am  Dm  Am 
Sky is burning
Bm     Am        Dm         Am      C      Am      Dm 
Red and gold the clouds are sweeping clean the air
Am          Am  Dm  Am 
My thoughts returning
     E         Am        Gm    Am    Dm   Am  Dm
To a time when there was only you to share


F                             Am
Then I learned there was more to life than this
F               Em              Dm 
I learned it with your kiss and you began to die

Am  Dm Am Dm

Am     Dm     Am     Dm     Am    Dm 
I only knew you for a night and day
Am     Dm     Am     Dm    Am      Dm 
You reached into my heart and went your way
C F                 Am 
And with your going there was silence
F                    Em             Dm                   Am Dm 
For I knew you would not return and will you think of me at all
