Song For Adam Chords by Kiki Dee

[Db] But I'm thinking that [Fm] he fell _ _ _
_ _ Together we went [Cm] traveling
[Db] As we received a call
His destination [Fm] in the earth
[Db] And I had none at all
But [Fm] I still remember [Eb] laughing
With [Db] our backs against the wall
[Ab] To free a fear [Fm] we never thought
[Db] That one of us [Fm] might fall _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] I sit before my [Ab] only candle
_ But [Db] it's so little light to find [Ab] my way
Now [Db] this story unfolds before [Fm] my candle
Which [Ab] is shorter every hour
As [Eb] it reaches for the day
[Fm] But I feel just like a candle [Eb] in a way
I guess [Db] I'll get there
But [Ab] I wouldn't say [Eb] _ [Db] for sure
_ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Eb] _ [Fm] When we parted [Eb] we were laughing still
[Db] As our goodbyes were said
And I never [Fm] heard from him again
[Db] As each our lives we led
_ [Fm] Except for [Eb] once in someone [Db] else's letter that I read
[Ab] Until I [Fm] heard the sudden word
[Db] That a friend of mine [Fm] was [Eb] dead _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] I sit before my [Ab] only candle
_ _ [Db] Like a pilgrim sits [Ab] beside the way
_ [Db] Now this journey appears before [Fm] my candle
_ [Ab] As a song that's growing fainter
[Eb] The harder that I play
[Fm] And I fear before I ever [Ab] fade [Eb] away
But I guess [Db] I'll get there
Though [Ab] I wouldn't say [Eb] _ [Db] for sure _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ [Fm] Though Adam [Eb] was a friend of mine
[Db] I did not know him long
[Ab] And when I stood [Fm] myself beside him
[Db] I never thought I was as strong
_ [Fm] Still it seems he [Eb] stopped his singing
[Db] In the middle of his song
Well I'm not the one to say I know
But I'm hoping he [Fm] was wrong _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] I'm holding out my [Ab] only candle
_ [Db] But it's so little light to find [Ab] my way
Now [Db] this story unfolds beneath [Fm] my candle
_ [Ab] Which is shorter every hour
[Eb] As it reaches for the day
[Fm] Yes I feel just like a candle in a [Eb] way
I guess [Db] I'll get there
But [Ab] I never pray
[Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
