Tom: G
Em
These days that never change,
G D
laying in the blur of a deep blue indigo
C G D
Below a fading sky
Em
I heard the same today,
G
the thundering applause that as always never came
C Bm Em
The song I sang as empty as the life I waste
G D
Woooaaaahh, woooaaaah,
C Bm Em/G
Oh wooaah, wooaah, woooaaah
Em
So things would never change
G D
I wrote inside my notebook, a far off fairytale,
C D G
the starring role you played
Em
This month is empty too,
G
I’m cut off from the world, society, all the news
Em
My life slowly drips away,
D
like the ink I write in
Em
As I’ve gotten older,
G
this dream from my younger by gone years,
D C
it slowly starts to fade…
Bm*
And all I can do is wait
C G D Em
When I, when I look up and see the clouds above
C G D
They all just, just pass me by and disappear
C Em
The night sky full of petals dancing in the wind
C D G
So much so it almost feels like a dream
C D* G
Like the way I’m losing sight of you it seems
Em
My eyes, they point straight down,
G D
realizing now that life is nothing but
C D G
one trade off after the next…
N.C.
Ugh!
Em
I don’t believe in fate,
or love or life or
G
things they play on the radio
Em D
There isn’t any use for things that can’t be sold
Em
The now I so wanted,
G
I threw in the trash bin,
D C
and watching it all slowly fade away…
Bm*
I’m lying still here in wait
C G D Em
Just now, just now I saw a distant image of you
C G D
far out of sight when I had closed my eyes
C Em
My notebook filled with flowers dancing in the night
C D G
Like the one I hold inside my eyes
C* D*
Life is just, one trade off after another
G* Em*
Something that I learnt quick as I got older
C D
Elma, it’s been you y’know
G Em
The music I’ve been listening that’s kept me going
C* D*
Two verses left, not even worth mentioning
G Em
Since life is priced as…
N.C. D* C
how tragically the storyline ends
G D Em C G D Em*
C* D*
Just then, just then,
G Em
I saw your picture in my mind
C G
Oh despite, despite the blue
D
that blurs your smile
C D
Those petals dancing on
G Em
the wind across the sky
C D G
As the indigo blue fills my eyes
Em C G D
Cause I, cause I….
C D Em G D*
I thought I saw you dancing in the distant sky
C D* G
Carried by the wind and out of sight
