_ [G#] _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [D#m] _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ [C#] She heard a voice from so far away, [F#] that told her her mother [D#m] had gone away.
[C#] In the next room, down the corridor, _ [F#] her baby started to cry. _
_ [C#] The poor lad that she's feathered from, there [F#] was nothing.
Then [D#m] the hurting started [C#] in her heavy head, _ on her knees, a [F#] shivering.
_ And somebody tell her [G#] _ Clementine, _ [C#] _ _ _
[F#] yeah, yeah, yeah.
_ If was never [G#] meant to be this way, _ [C#] if was never meant [F#] to be this way. _ _ _
_ [G#] _ Clementine, _ [C#] _ _
yeah, [F#] yeah, yeah.
_ [D#m] If was never meant [G#] to be this way, _ [C#] if was never meant [F#] to be this way.
If only I told you [G#] yesterday, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] in a caravan she sped away,
into [F#] the floodlit street, [D#m] down by your way.
[G#] As the sun rose through [C#] the morning dew, while [F#] she returned on such a sled. _
[G#] _ Her baby knew not [C#] what was going on, but [F#] it could tell from the tears [D#m] that,
something was wrong with [C#] mum's deprivation.
Let out a silent scream, [F#] but our Clementine, she didn't hear a damn thing.
[G#] _ Clementine, _ _ [C#] _ _
[F#] yeah, yeah, yeah.
_ _ If was [D#m] never [G#] meant to be this way, _ [C#] if was never [F#] meant to be this _ way. _ _
_ [G#] _ Clementine, _ [C#] _ _ _
[F#] yeah, yeah, yeah.
_ If [D#m] was never meant [G#] to be this way, _ [C#] if was never meant [F#] to be this way.
If only I told you [G#] yesterday, I'm sure the village [C#] is dead at itself.
I [F#] said this my life, [D#m] this world here for [G#] a reflection, she chose [C#] not to respond.
So [F#] she forced her to smile, like a cold stone statue,
and bended her tears and said time is first.
