E/F# F#sus4 E/F# F#sus4
Too good to last, how those four words ring in my ears
E/F# F#sus4
A voice from the past has been heard again
E/F# F#sus4 Ab/Eb Ebm
Whether it's real or not, I can't say I care
Ab/Eb Ebm Ab/Eb Ebm
But my memory's going and my mind is losing it's grip
Ab/Eb Ebm
I'm walking on thinning ice
E/F# F#sus4 E/F# F#sus4
Soon I shall be taken down, drowned in blind ignorance
E/F# F#sus4
Its hard to bear but harder still
E/F#
To tell the one I care for
[Bridge 1]
E/C# B/C# Emaj7/C# C#m7 Abaug/Eb Ab/Eb Eb Ab/Eb
Please to say love is here to--day, but it's going away, going away

Ab/Eb Ebm
Ab/Eb Ebm Ab/Eb Ebm
How can I fight a fire that comes from inside myself
Ab/Eb Ebm Ab/Eb
That threatens a total end
E/F# F#sus4 E/F# F#sus4
So much to lose when I still had so much to learn
E/F# F#sus4
Its hard to bear but harder still

To tell the one I care for

Ab/Eb Ebm
Ab/Eb Ebm Ab/Eb Ebm
Already I feel a creeping coldness chilling my bones
Ab/Eb
Dulling my sight and mind
E/F# F#sus4 E/F# F#sus4
Soon there shall be only sand where once water flowed
E/F# F#sus4 E/F# Ab/Eb Ebm
Nature dies and is reborn, but I shan't weather this coming storm
Ab/Eb Ebm Ab/Eb Ebm
Not for me to die with children around my bed
Ab/Eb
After a happy life
E/F# F#sus4 E/F# F#sus4
Though rain will fall and the sun won't change in it's course
E/F# F#sus4
Its hard to bear but harder still
E/F#
To tell the one I care for
