Verse 1:
C
Reflecting from my deathbed 
                                        F
I'm balancing life's riches against the ditches 
Fm                            C
and the flat gray years in between
                        G
All I can see are the never-laid
            F            C
That's the never-played symphonies

Verse 2:
C
I can't see those who tried to love me                        
All those who felt they understood me 
                  F                          C
and I can't see those who very patiently put up with me
                         G
All I can see are the never-laid
         F           C
Or the never-played symphonies

C -> C7
Chorus:
F                   G
You were one, you meant to be one
E
and you jumped into my face and laughed 
       Am                                 F      G
and kissed me on the cheek and then were gone forever
        C
...not quite

Verse 3:
C
Black sky in the daytime
and I don't much mind dying
               F                        C
When there is nothing left to care for anymore
           G               F            C
Just the never-laid, the never-played symphonies

Chorus:
F               G
You were one, you knew you were one
E
and you slipped right thru my fingers 
         Am                        F
No not literally but metaphorically
                G                C
and now you're all I see as the light fades
