Lyrics

(C)look Just yes ter day morn ing they let me (F)know that you were gone.

Su sanne, the plans (Em)see they made put an (Bb)end to you.

I walked out this morn ing and I wrote down this song.

I just can’t re mem ber who to send it to.

Well, I’ve seen (Dm)fire and I’ve seen rain,

seen sun ny days that I thought would nev er end,

seen (C)lone ly times when I could not find a friend,

but I (Bb)al ways thought that I’d (Gm7)see you a gain.

Won’t you (C)look down up on me, Je sus?

You’ve got to (F)help me make a stand.

You’ve just got to (Em)see me through put an (Bb)oth er day.

My bod y’s this ach ing and my time is at hand

and I won’t re make it an y oth er way.

Well, I’ve seen (Dm)fire and I’ve seen rain,

seen sun ny days that I thought would nev er end,

seen (C)lone ly times when I could not find a friend,

but I (Bb)al ways thought that I’d (Gm7)see you a gain.

Won’t you

I’ve been walk ing my mind to an eas y time, with my back turned to wards the sun.

Lord knows, when the cold wind blows it ’ll (Bb)turn your head a round.

Well, there’s hours of time on the tel (Bb)e phone line to talk a bout things to come.

Sweet dreams and fly ing ma chines in piec es on the ground.

Well, I’ve seen (Dm)fire and I’ve seen rain,

seen sun ny days that I thought would nev er end,

seen (C)lone ly times when I could not find a friend,

but I (Bb)al ways thought that I’d (Gm7)see you a gain.

Yes, I (Bb)al ways thought that I’d (Gm7)see you a gain.
