Verse 1: -------- E Abm Well he jumps in the taxi, headed for the sky A E He's off to slay some demon or dragonfly E Abm And he looked at me, that long last time A E Turned away again and I waved goodbye B In an envelope, inside his coat A E Is a chain I wore, around my throat B Along with, a note I wrote A B Said "I love you but, I don't ... even know why" *Chorus: ------- E A E But darling, I wish you well B On your way to the wishing well A Swinging off of those gates of hell B E A E But I can tell how hard you're trying E Just have that secret hope B sometimes all we do is cope A Somewhere on the steepest slope B There'll be an endless rope E A E and nobody crying. *Verse 2: --------- Same chords as 1st Verse except where noted Well a long night turns into a couple long years Of me walkin' around, around this trail of tears Where the very loud voices of my own fears Is ringin' and ringin' in my ears B It says that love is long gone A E Every move I make is all wrong B Says you never gave a damn for me A B B7 For anything, for anyone *Chorus: -------- *Break: ------- B A E May you dream you are dreaming, in a warm soft bed B A E And may the voices inside you that fill you with dread B A E Make the sound of thousands of angels instead B A B B7 Tonight where you might be laying your head
