Intro:  D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G


D                         G         D                          G
Cloaked in black like the stars, so wrapped up in yourself you are

    D                       G                          D     G
The needle taste sweeter by far than the cold light of day

    D               G             D              G
And as you become enslaved to the puppy that you grief

         D                   G                      D      G
There is nothing I can do to save you from slipping away

           Bm                     G
And I just wanted, just needed to say

          Bm              G                  D
I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away

[Following verse as above]
So when you just can't take anymore and the nappy comes too full of pain
You reach for the comfort of your white stallion again
And I just wanted, just needed to say
I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away
Just wasting away

Em                    A         Em                      A
   I've seen the fire die away,    I've seen the sunset in your eyes

Em                        A                      G
   I've seen the darkness coming down and I just needed

A
  To say goodbye

[Following verse as first verse - Repeat D G sequence]
So you're dancing with the candy man, he's saving the last words for you
And as he leads you away by the hand there is nothing I can do
There is nothing I can do
Goodbye to you, goodbye to you

[End on A D]
