Lyrics

I sense there’s some thing in the (F)wind

that feels like (B7)trag e dy’s at (Em)hand.

And though I’d (G)like to stand by (F)him,

can’t shake this (B)feel ing that I (Em)have.

The worst is (G)just a round the (F)bend.

And does he (Em)no

tice

my feel ings (C)for

him?

And will he (Em)see

how (B7)much he means to (Am)me?

I (B7)think it’s not to (Em)be.

What will be come of my dear (F)friend?

Where will his (B7)ac tions lead us (Em)then?

Al though I’d (G)like to join the (F)crowd

in their en (B)thu si as tic (Em)cloud,

try as I (G)may it does n’t (F)last.

And will we (Em)ev

er

end up to (C)geth

er?

No, I think (Em)not.

It’s (B7)nev er to be (Am)me?

I (B7)think it’s not to (Em)be.

What will be (Am)come,

(C)for (B7)I am not the (Em)one.
