CAPO: 3rd fret
(Will then sound in the recorded approx. key of C)
 
Alternatively, detune all your strings down one full
tone to D G C F A D and play the song in D. With the
dropped tuning it will still sound in the key of C.
 
FINE TUNING:
For all instruments you'll find you will sound a
little flat compared to the original record.
To better match the original recording's pitch,
use a chromatic tuner and fine tune all the strings
up by approx. +30 cents above standard pitch.

[Verse 1]
  D                         A      Asus2  A      Asus2
| /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  /  | /  /  /  / |
 
A                         Em
   There you stood on the edge of your feather,
D                E     Esus4 E
   Expecting to fly,
A                     Em
   While I laughed, I wondered whether...
D                      E   A   D                  G
   I could wave good - bye---, knowing that you'd gone
 
[Verse 2]
Am7                D7
     By the summer it was healing,
G                       C
     We had said good - bye,
Am7                     D7
     All the years we'd spent with feeling,
G                 C
     Ended with a cry,
Cmaj7  Gmaj7                C
Babe,       ...ended with a cry,
Cmaj7  Gmaj7                A   Asus2   A    Asus2
Babe,       ...ended with a cry 
 
[Verse 3]
A             Em
   I tried so hard to stand,
     D                        E      Esus4 E
As I stumbled and fell to the ground,
A             Em
   So hard to laugh as I fumbled,
    D                      E      A
And reached for the love I found----,
D              G
Knowing it was gone
 
[Verse 4]
Am7             D7
     If I never lived without you,
G                     C
     Now you know I'd die,
Am7             D7
     If I never said I loved you,
G                     C
     Now you know I'd try,
Cmaj7   Gmaj7                     C
Babe,         ...now you know I'd try,
Cmaj7   Gmaj7                      C    Cmaj7    G
Babe,         ...now you know I'd try,  Babe-------!
