[G] [C]
[A] [D]
[G] On top of [C] a mountain top I [A] stood and [D] thought one day
[G] I really could [C] see a lot [A] and if I [D] had my way
A lazy [Am] young start [D] I was [C] so deep in [F#] love [G] those [Bm] days
As if there [Am] was nothing was but [C] only [G] love I crave
And so I [C] didn't know as much [Am] her loving touch [D] amazed
[G] I was so gone with love [D] the alphabet was a haze
[G] So alone [Am] as she pulled [D] away [C] the funeral truck [G] I [Bm] cried
I gave the [Am] clouds [D] away [C] like a lost Christmas [G] that day
And now I [C] can't seem to cope [D] but only hope some way
[G] Just to see [C] her once more [A] and we could be friends like [D] way back when
It's as if I'm [Am] already dead [C] and in my grave [G] I lay
[Bm]
If only her [Am] love could save me [C] now and if somehow [G] she'd stay
