There you stood on the edge of your feather, expecting to fly,
A Em D E A
While I laughed, I wondered whether... I could wave good - bye-----,
D G
Knowing... that you'd gone------!

By the summer it was healing, we had said good - bye,
Am7 D7 G C
All the years we'd spent with feeling, ended with a cry,
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 C
Babe-----, ended with a cry,
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 A Asus2 A Asus2
Babe-------, ended with a cry-----! | / / / / |
A Em D E E4 E
I tried so hard to stand, as I stumbled, and fell to the ground,
A Em D E A
So hard to laugh as I fumbled, and reached for the love I found------,
D G
Knowing it was gone-----!
Am7 D7 G C
If I ever lived without you, now you know I'd die,
Am7 D7 G C
If I ever said I loved you, now you know I'd try,
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 C
Babe-----, now you know I'd try,
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 C Cmaj7 G
Babe-----, now you know I'd try, Babe---------!
