D          G            D       D
It's a lesson too late for the learning,
         A   A         D    D
made of sand, made of sand.
        D          G              D      D
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
         A   A         D    D
In your hand, in your hand.

[Refrain]
         A      A           G           G
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
            D        D            A    A
Will there be not a trace left behind?
   D                    G                A            F#m
I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
          G            G                D
You know that was the last thing on my mind.

[Verse 2]
You've got reasons aplenty for going.
This I know, this I know.
For the weeds have been steadily growing.
Please don't go, please don't go.

Repeat Refrain

[Verse 3]
As I lie here in bed in the morning
without you, without you.
Every song in my breast dies a borning
without you, without you.
