Cm
What drives us on?
Ab
What drives us on?
Cm Fm
I left something of myself in you
Gm Ab
Fourscore, twenty, thirty
Cm Fm
In your body and in your flesh
Gm Ab
In your vault of skin
Cm
I was nothing for you
Fm Gm
But the shadow of another love
Ab
That one day for you
Cm
Would shift the skies
Fm
To pastures blue
Gm Ab
Streaked with passing and loss
Cm Fm
Tortoise green in my eyes
Gm
From the moss of my past
Ab
You arise
Cm Fm
And lightly then I saw you smile
Gm Ab
With ivory throat and ivory eyes
Cm Fm
At night I catch you before I sleep
Gm Ab
And if I died before I wake
Cm Fm
I prayed that you my heart might keep
Gm Ab
I cannot hold your tunneled eyes
Cm Fm
Near my heart any longer
Gm Ab
All this love is nothing truly:
Cm
Mist of moons' breath
Fm
Grit of evening
Gm Ab
The grass was green (I now recall)
Cm Fm
Before my own particular fall
Gm
I saw we were both really
Ab
Masks on nothing
Cm Fm
(The moonlight sweeping over northern beaches)
Gm
All the trees stand stripped
Ab
Just silhouettes of memories
Cm Fm
At night I have started to dream of you:
Gm
Your eyes are wide
Ab Cm
And shot through with sea blue
