To Ramona

    G
Oh, Ramona come closer,
                        D
Shut softly your watery eyes
    D
The pangs of your sadness
                               G
Will pass as your senses will rise
    C
The flowers of the city
    C
Though breath-like,
                  D
Get deathlike sometimes
             D
And there's no use in trying
    D
To deal with the dying
    D                            G
Though I cannot express that in lines


     G
Your cracked country lips,  I still wish to kiss
                               D
To be by the strength of your skin
   D
Your magnetic movements
                              G
Still capture the minutes I'm in
    C
But it grieves my heart, love
           C
To see you trying to be a part of
                         D
A world that just don't exist
     D
It's all just a dream, babe
    D
A vacuum, a scheme, babe
   D                              G
That sucks you into feeling like this


      G
I can see that your head has been twisted and fed
                             D
By worthless foam from the mouth
    D
I can tell you are torn between staying
                          G
And returning back to the South
            C
You've been fooled into thinking
         C
The finishing end
       D
Is at hand
     D
But there's no one to beat you,
     D
No one to defeat you
                                      G
Just the thought of yourself feeling bad


               G
I've heard you say many times that you're better than no one
                          D
And no one is better than you
  D
If you really believe that you know you have nothing
                      G
To win and nothing to lose
     C
From fixtures and forces
   C
And friends
                 D
Your sorrow does stem
    D
They'll hype you and type you
  D
Into making you feel
                                G
That you've gotta be just like them


       G
I'd forever talk to you but soon my words
                                D
Would turn into a meaningless ring
    D
And deep in my heart I know that
                        G
There is no help I can bring
     C
But everything passes,
  C
Everything changes
                                  D
Just do what you think you should do
    D
And who knows baby,
   D
Someday maybe
                           G
I'll come and be crying to you
