F#5             F5
In the summer that you came
           Bb5                F#5
There was something eating everyone
 F#5                F5
And the sunshine fund was low
             Bb5
We couldn't greet you
         F#5
With a simple hello

 F#5                F5
And the watchers of the flood
      Bb5             F#5
Were busy in their chambers
 F#5                 F5
Making sure there was new blood
       Bb5         F#5
To sustain their dying veins

         F#5
But i believed you
    F5
No need for further questioning
 Bb5
I'm gonna leave with you
         F#5
You can teach me all you know
                   F#5
Which way will we go now
        F5
On our trip to taller windows
          Bb5
I really don't know now
          F#5
I really don't know

 F#5              F5
In the winter that you left
           Bb5
There was business as usual
                   F#5
With the same old fears and frustrations
         F#5
But the word got out
        F#5
It was really such a pity

         Bb5
But the judges and the saints
         F5
And the textbook committee
   F#5                   Bb5
Decided you should be left out
          F#5
Not even mentioned

         F#5
But i believed you
    F5
No need for further questioning
 Bb5
I'm gonna leave with you
         F#5
You can teach me all you know
                   F#5
Which way will we go now
        F5
On our trip to taller windows
          Bb5
I really don't know now
          F#5
I really don't know
