Lover, there    will be    another  one

Who'll hover over     you     beneath the sun

Tomorrow, see    the things that never come today

When you see me fly away without you
C             Cadd9      G    Gadd11  G
Shadow on the things you know
C        Cadd11  Bm
Feathers fall    around you
    Am   Asus2   Em     D
And show you the way to go

Nestled in     your wings, my little one

Is special, mor----ning brings another  sun
  G       Gadd11 G   Gadd9  G    Cmaj7 C      G   C/G  G
Tomorrow, see    the things that never come today

When you see me fly away without you

Shadow on the things you know
C        Cadd11  Bm
Feathers fall    around you
    Am   Asus2   Em     D
And show you the way to go

It's over,   it's o--ver
