[A] And [D] it's fading [A] well, my [G] friend
I'll see you at the [D] Thomas Gate

Like you get lost if you [Em] won't get you
[A] And [D] it's [A] fading well, [G] my friend
I'll see you at the Thomas [D] Gate
Where [A] the wind [Em] is last
And [D] that [A] poem we never [G] made
Is waiting in the desert [D] shade
I [A] believe,
[Em]
[D] like a bird [A] on broken [G] wings
I've been so afraid [D] to stay
All [A] my life, [Em] I've walked

I've been so afraid [D] to live
By the [A] lights [G] of [Em] forever
