Album: Blackbird (2007)
[Intro]
G C Cadd9
[Verse 1]
G          C            Cadd9
Leaves are on the ground
G        C    Cadd9
Fall has come
G          C         Cadd9
Blue skies turning grey
G       C    Cadd9
Like my love
G        C       Cadd9
I try to carry you
G            C     Cadd9
And make you whole
G          C     G
But it was never enough
G                 G/F#
I must go
[Chorus]
    Em7  D           C                 G        G/F#
And who     is gonna save you when I’m gone
    Em7  D            C
And who’ll watch over you
         G
When I’m gone?
[Instrumental]
C Cadd9 G C Cadd9
[Verse 2]
G           C         Cadd9
You say you care for me
G           C    Cadd9
But hide it well
G           C        G                    G/F#
How can you love someone not yourself?
[Chorus]
    Em7  D           C                 G         G/F#
And who     is gonna save you when I’m gone
    Em7  D            C
And who’ll watch over you
when I’m gone
[Instrumental]
G
[Bridge] (with electric guitar, play these in barre)
Em7          Cadd9                    G
And when I’m gone who will break your fall
             Dsus4
Who’ll you blame?
Em7        Cadd9              G                         Dsus4
I can’t go on let you lose it all, it’s more than I can take
Em               C
Who’ll ease your pain
          G
Ease your pain?
[Chorus] (with electric guitar, play these in barre)
    Em7  D           C                 G       G/F#
And who     is gonna save you when I’m gone
    Em7  D            C      G      G/F#
And who’ll watch over you
    Em7 D               C                        G         G/F#
And who   will give you strength when you’re not strong
             Em       D             C
Who’ll watch over you when I’m gone away
[End Verse]
G       C         Cadd9
Snow is on the ground
G        C    Cadd9
Winter’s come
G           C          Cadd9
You long to hear my voice
G   G   G    G
But I’m long gone
