D 
right away 
C 
waiting for a sign 
D                      C 
wanting you to take my hand 
C                  G 
breathless in the morn 
G                    C 
you'd gone to better lands 
       C 
i just sat there, silent, 
       D           G 
as the longest day began 
--- 
gone a day 
it feels like many years 
there below the wet tree ground 

sun gave to moon said 
"sleep now restless one, 
cause i ain't never seen a night 
that didn't have a dawn" 
--- 
spring brought rain 
summer brought the fall 
fox said goodbye to their homes 

almost been a year 
my love for you has grown 
and this weathered photograph 
is all i have to show
