Things were all good yes ter day and then the dev il took your mem o ry.

Ei ther way, I’ll cry with the rest of them.

And my (Am)fa ther told me, son, it’s not his fault he does n’t know your (F)face.

And you’re (Am)not the on ly one.

Al though my (Gm7)grand ma used to (C)say

Darl ing, hold in my your (Bb)arms the way you did last night.

And we’ll lie in side, a lit tle while here, oh.

I could look in to your (Bb)eyes un til the sun comes up.

And we’re wrapped in light and life and love.

Put your o pen lips and (Bb)mine and slow ly let them shut, for they’re de signed to be to geth er, oh.
