[Intro]
B E
[Verse 1]
YBou fell right into mEy hands
I'll hBave you and hold you 'til EI can’t
YBou were bright and magic-eyEed
FBar from home, but EI was on your side
And let yoBu flyE

So that's goodbBye

But so it gBoes

And all that EI can do is hold a home within me

I'd have thEought that we would have another morning
But so it gBoes
And so it ends
And all that EI can do is hold a home within me
DF#o you know I cried, I cried, I crEied until I thought that I could dBie
[Verse 3]
TBell us, tell us what yEou see
SBoaring high abovEe humanity
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me, Eoh
Do you sBee me

You fell right into my hands

I'll have you and hold you 'til I can’t

You were bright and magic-eyed

Far from home, but I was on your side

And let you fly

[Chorus]

So that's goodbye

My eager friend

I'd have thought that we would have another morning

But so it goes

And so it ends

And all that I can do is hold a home within me

F# E B

Do you know I cried, I cried, I cried until I thought that I could die

[Verse 2]

Tell us, tell us what you see

Soaring high above humanity

B E

Do you see me, oh

[Chorus]

So that's goodbye

My eager friend

I'd have thought that we would have another morning

But so it goes

And so it ends

And all that I can do is hold a home within me

F# E B

Do you know I cried, I cried, I cried until I thought that I could die

[Verse 3]

Tell us, tell us what you see

Soaring high above humanity

Do you see me, oh

Do you see me, oh

Do you see me, oh
