Tom: C

I painted your room at midnight,
A F
So I'd know yesterday was over.
A F
I put all your books on the top shelf,
C A# C A#
Even the one with the four leaf clover.
C A#
Man I'm getting older.
A F
I took all your pictures off the wall,
A F
And I wrapped them in a newspaper blanket.
A F C
And I haven't slept in what seems like a century.
A# G# A#
And now I can barely breathe.
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly,
Am C F
Dandilions lost in the summer sky.
Am C F
'Cause when you and I were gettin' high as outer space,
Dm F G
I never thought you would slip away.
Dm F G
I guess I was just a little too late.
A F
Your words still serenade me,
A F
Your lullabies won't let me sleep.
C A# C A#
I've never heard such a haunting melody,
C A#
oh it's killing me.
Fm A#
You know I can barely breathe.
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly,
Am C F
Dandilions lost in the summer sky.
Am C F
'Cause when you and I were gettin' high as outer space,
Dm F G
I never thought you would slip away.
Dm F G
I guess I was just a little too late.
Solo: D# A# F
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly,
Am C F
Dandilions lost in the summer sky.
Am C F
'Cause when you and I were gettin' high as outer space,
Dm F G
I never thought you would slip away.
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly,
Am C F
Dandilions lost in the summer sky.
Am C F
'Cause when you and I were gettin' high as outer space,
Dm F G
I never thought you would slip away.
Dm F G
I guess I was just a little too laaaaaaate.
