Lyrics

Oh, they (C#m7)say peo ple (A6)come,

(E)say peo ple (G#m7)go,

this par (C#m7)tic u lar (A6)dia mond was (E)ex tra spe (B)cial.

And though (C#m7)you might be (A6)gone

and the (Esus4)world (E)may not (G#m7)know,

still I (C#m7)see you, ce (A6)lest ti al.

Like a (C#m7)li on you (A6)ran,

a (Esus4)god (E)dess you (G#m7)rolled,

like an (C#m7)ea gle you (A6)cir cled in (E)per fect pur (B)ple.

So how (C#m7)come things move (A6)on,

how (Esus4)come (E)cars don’t (G#m7)slow,

when it (C#m7)feels like the (A6)end of my world?

When I (C#m7)should, but I (A6)can’t let you go?

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

oh when I’m cold,

(E)cold,

there’s a (C#m7)light that you (A)give me when (E)I’m in shad (G#m7)ow,

there’s a (C#m7)feel ing you (A6)give me, an (Bsus4)ev er glow.

Like (C#m7)broth ers in (A6)blood,

(Esus4)sis (E)ters who (G#m7)ride

and we (C#m7)swore on that (A6)night we’d be (E)friends till we (B)die.

But the (C#m7)chang ing of (A6)winds

and the (E)way wa ters (G#m7)flow,

life as (C#m7)short as the (A6)fall ing of snow;

and now I’m gon na (A6)miss you, I know…

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

in wa ter rolled

(E)salt.

I (C#m7)know that you’re (A)with me and the (E)way you will (G#m7)show

and you’re (C#m7)with me wher (A6)ev er I go.

And you (C#m7)give me this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

Oh.

What I would n’t (C#m7)give for just a (A6)mo ment to hold.

Yeah, I (C#m7)live for this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

So if (C#m7)you love some (A6)one,

you should let them (G#m7)know,

oh, the (C#m7)light that you (A)left me will ev er glow.
