Am Dm
Am Dm Am Dm Am
Sky is burning
Bm Am Dm Am C Am Dm
Red and gold the clouds are sweeping clean the air
Am Am Dm Am
My thoughts returning
E Am Gm Am Dm Am Dm
To a time when there was only you to share
F Am
Then I learned there was more to life than this
F Em Dm
I learned it with your kiss and you began to die
Am Dm Am Dm
Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm
I only knew you for a night and day
Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm
You reached into my heart and went your way
C F Am
And with your going there was silence
F Em Dm Am Dm
For I knew you would not return and will you think of me at all
Am Dm
Am Gm Am Gm Am Dm
dadadadadadada
