Last night, the constellations
Bb Dm Gm
Watched me walk at half past twelve

With some people you don't see the whole picture all at once
C F Gm
Like you fill in the gaps in the stars all by yourself
Bb Dm Gm
And who has time in this world of worries?

Drives you crazy, makes you mad
Bb Dm Gm
When you make the mistake just a little too late
C F Gm
You're missing something now that you never knew you had
Gm D7
So, how do I answer
Gm C
These blues you say I've got?

Too soon gone, too soon gone

Time makes me pay for these memories I've bought

Too soon gone, too soon gone

Pretty soon, now all this ice will melt

And buds will get ready to break

But every leaf that grows in the language that it knows

Says that winter will return now and these trees are gonna shake

So, how do I answer

These blues you say I've got?

Time sweeps me forward as memory is caught
