Verse 1:
W[E]ell he jumps in the taxi, [G#m]headed for the sky
He's o[A]ff to slay some demon o[E]r dragonfly
And [E]he looked at me, that [G#m]long last time
[A]Turned away again and I wa[E]ved goodbye
[B]In an envelope, inside his coat
Is a [A]chain I wore, arou[E]nd my throat
[B]Along with, a note I wrote
Said "I l[A]ove you but, I [B]don't ... even know why"
Chorus:
But darling, I w[E]ish you well [A][E]
On your way to the wi[B]shing well
Swinging off of those ga[A]tes of hell
But I can t[B]ell how hard you're t[E]rying [A][E]
Just have that se[E]cret hope
sometimes all we d[B]o is cope
Somewhere on the st[A]eepest slope
There'll be an en[B]dless rope
and nobody cr[E]ying. [A][E]
Verse 2:
Same chords as 1st Verse except where noted
Well a long night turns into a couple long years
Of me walkin' around, around this trail of tears
Where the very loud voices of my own fears
Is ringin' and ringin' in my ears
It s[B]ays that love is long gone
Every m[A]ove I make is a[E]ll wrong
Says you n[B]ever gave a damn for me
For a[A]nything, for a[B]nyone [B7]
Chorus:
Break:
May you d[B]ream you are dreaming, in a w[A]arm soft b[E]ed
And may the v[B]oices inside you that fi[A]ll you with dr[E]ead
Make the [B]sound of thousands of [A]angels instead [E]
Toni[B]ght where you might be la[A]ying your h[B]ead[B7]
