(Gm, F)
Yesterday's memories and melodies
Are gone with the wind, so sad
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
But she's not the one
Out in the emptiness where everything's pale
There is no sign of you, I'm alone
How I wish you would be here, I'm alone
Telling me it's alright

D# (x43121@3)                      FCome (133211@1)rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head

(Gm, F, Gm)

    Gm (355333@1)      F (133211@1)           GmAs (355333@1)long as we live it won't go away
       Gm (355333@1)    F (133211@1)    C (x32010@1)  
We are one but torn apart

Gm (355333@1)           FWill (133211@1)you still wait for me?
