Drift Away

G
Here in the Garden
G7
Let's play a game
C                         Cm
I'll show you how it's done
G
Here in the Garden
G7
Stand very still
C                  Cm
This'll be so much fun

Em
And then she smiled
B7
That's what I'm after
C
A smile in her eyes
A7
The sound of her laughter

G
Happy to listen
G7
Happy to play
C                    Cm D   G
Happily watching her drift away

G
Happily waiting
G7
All on my own
C                  Cm
Under the endless sky

G
Counting the seconds
G7
Standing alone
C                        Cm
As thousands of years go by

Em
Happily wondering
B7
Night after night
C
Is this how it works?
A7
Am I doing it right?

G
Happy to listen
G7
Happy to stay
C                    Cm D   G
Happily watching her drift away

      F              C        G
You keep on turning pages for people
 who don't care
Dm                      C       Am
People who don't care about you
F                        C      
And still, it takes you ages to see 
G
that no one's there
Dm
See that no one's there
C                      Am
See that no one's there
                       F
Everyone's gone on without you

G
Finally something
G7
Finally news
C                   Cm
About how the story ends
G
She doesn't exist now
G7
Survived by her son
C                        Cm
And all of her brand new friends

Em
Isn't that lovely?
B7
Isn't that cool?
C
And isn't that cruel
    A7
And aren't I a fool to have

G
Happily listened

Happy to stay
