Abm-Am       F#m  
It starts at daylight
A5
I see him
Abm       F#m   
Before my sad eyes
A5         Abm
I hear him breathing
F#m
Oh lord,
            A5      Abm
Need you to leave me
    F#m
No never,
                   A5-Ab
Thought that you'd leave...
E    F#m    Ab
That was my veil.
E    F#m    Ab
That was my time.
E    F#m    Ab
Once held secret.

But now lies.

No words can

Heal my heart

In the side I'm broken

Now it's done

Was she a pretty girl

Does she have pretty hair

Was she soft spoken

Was there all love there?

That was my veil.

That was my time.

Once held secret.

But now lies.

(organ - continue playing verses)

Give back my veil

Give back my life

No more secret

You give me light

Give me back my veil

Give back my time

No more secret
            B-A   B-A   B-A  (cont.)
You give me lies.
