     C#m    Ebm     B       G#m        C#m     Ebm   B   G#m
On a bright day she passed away in the morning
       C#m   Ebm    B         G#m         C#m     Ebm   B   G#m
It's a cruel way to take her away with no warning
C#m Ebm     B              G#m   C#m      Ebm     B    G#m
He  took her hands through every midnight hour
         C#m Ebm B       G#m        C#m            Ebm    B    G#m
And they saw her fading away like a spring shower


A              B            C#m
I can see a complete life's time
E                       B         C#m
Pictures and posters of times and fashion
A                      B         C#m
Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
E               B        C#m
Taken away in a crime of passion


C#m Ebm     B         G#m             C#m          Ebm   B   G#m
He  stood to see if he could catch her breathing
           C#m Ebm      B     G#m          C#m      Ebm   B    G#m
But it was no  good, he understood she was leaving
C#m Ebm       B        G#m    C#m    Ebm      B   G#m
He  looked outside the frosty window pane
            C#m Ebm B       G#m          C#m        Ebm   B   G#m
And then he saw her moving away with his ? chain


A              B            C#m
I can see a complete life's time
E                       B         C#m
Pictures and posters of times and fashion
A                      B         C#m
Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
E               B        C#m
Taken away in a crime of passion


C#m Ebm B          G#m           C#m           Ebm   B    G#m
I   see freedom in sight, it's a long climb
        C#m   Ebm      B      G#m         C#m      Ebm   B   G#m
But she would not give up the fight for a long time
C#m   Ebm   B        G#m     C#m  Ebm      B   G#m
And I see a light go shining into night
          C#m Ebm      B             G#m             C#m          Ebm B G#m
Baby it's all right we couldn't have changed it with second sight


A              B            C#m
I can see a complete life's time
E                       B         C#m
Pictures and posters of times and fashion
A                      B         C#m
Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
E               B        C#m
Taken away in a crime of passion



F#
I see freedom glittering in the night
F#                                  E      B
I see freedom but she wouldn't give up the fight

Baby it's all right we couldn't have changed it with second sight


C#m   Ebm   B        G#m     C#m  Ebm      B   G#m
