[Verse 1]
C         G               D/F#             Em
I hate to leave you now before my time has come,
C             G             B7
But I'll rest peacefully to know  my job is  done,
C           G               D/F#          Em
I've got no way to hear  the stories yet untold,
C          G               B7
No crystal ball to show me what the future holds.


[Chorus]
C               D/F#                 G    D/F#    Em
And when you're wandering, where the wild grasses grow,
C          D/F#              G      D/F#    Em
And feel a little something, tickle in your nose,
C        G                    D/F#                  Em
In every whispering wind that whistles through your hair,
C          D/F#             G
Close your eyes and I'll be there.


[Verse 2]
C         G               D/F#             Em
I see the worried look, a building in your eyes, (Ooh),
C          G                     B7
I feel the weight of love that's filling me inside,
C           G               D/F#           Em
I've got no way to stop the ticking of the time,
C            G                 B7
You know I'd use the power, if only it were mine.


[Chorus]
C               D/F#                 G    D/F#    Em
And when you're wandering, where the wild grasses grow,
C          D/F#              G      D/F#    Em
And feel a little something, tickle in your nose,
C        G                    D/F#                  Em
In every whispering wind that whistles through your hair,
C          D/F#             G
Close your eyes and I'll be there.


[Post-Chorus]
C   G
Uuh-uuh
D/F#  Em
Uuh-uuh
C   G
Uuh-uuh
D/F#
Uuh-uuh


[Bridge]
C             G                D/F#        Em
And with your love surrounding me in tenderness,
C         G                 B7
I give my all to you with this my final breath.


[Chorus]
C               D/F#                 G    D/F#    Em
And when you're wandering, where the wild grasses grow,
C          D/F#              G      D/F#    Em
And feel a little something, tickle in your nose,
C        G                    D/F#                  Em
In every whispering wind that whistles through your hair,
C          D/F#             Em
Close your eyes and I'll be there.


[Outro]
Em
Uuh-uuh,
C          D/F#             G
Close your eyes and I'll be there.
