_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ [F] _ Thank you, Paul Lamoie.
Thank you for having us back so soon.
Thank you.
_ _ _ [Ab]
In the [Fm] beginning, [Eb] it was Eddie, _ David, [Ab]
Melvin, _ [Eb] Otis, [Gm] and Paul Williams.
[F]
Thank you.
_ Ladies and gentlemen, we pay tribute to the late but great [Bbm] Paul Williams. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Try _ _ _ [Bb]
to [Cm] remember when [Fm] life [F]
was so [Bb] tender
That love [Eb] was [Cm] young [F] and [C] only [Bb] so mellow
_ [Eb]
Try to remember
[Fm] It's nice [D] to remember
When [Eb] grace [Cm] would care
Beside [Bb] your pillow
[Gm] _ Breathe in [C] December
[Fm] It is [F] nice to remember
[Eb] _ _ _
_ [Ab] September [Db] that [Bbm] made us new
_ [Gm] _ [Bb] Paul Williams was a minor [Am] part.
_ [F]
I never will forget the first time I heard Paul [Dm] say these words.
_ [F] _ [Bb] For what?
In my life, [Gm] I have someone [B] who needs me
[Cm] _
[Ab] Someone I've needed [F] so long
[Fm] _ [Cm] But once, [Ab] unafraid, [F] I can go
Where life leads me
[Bb]
Somehow I know I'll be strong
[F] _ [Bb] For once, I can touch [Db] what my heart used to dream of
[Cm] _
_ Long [Eb] before I knew
[F] Oh, [Bb] _
[Dm] someone warm [Eb] like you, baby
_ _ [C] _
Could make my [Cm] dreams come [F] true
[Bb] For once, I can say
[D] This is mine, [Gb] you can take [Eb] it
As long as I know
[G] I have love, [E] I can make it
[Bb] For once, in [Gb] my life, I [Eb] have someone who needs [Bb] me
_ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb]
Paul was a friend and a brother
[Gm] And totally a temptation
[Cm] And who can forget the warmth we felt
When he sang this song
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
[Bb] Love
_ _ [Gm] _ Oh _
_ [G] _ _ [Bb] _ To bear [C]
with [Eb] unbearable sorrow
[Cm] _ To run the way where the [Eb] breakdown had gone
[C] To [F] write
[Bb] _
The unrightable wrong
It's so [Eb] hard to even learn
Your actions from afar
[Dm] To trust
When [Cm] your arms are too weak
_ To reach _
[F] That sky above
Cause [Bb] the right way is in my hands
To follow [Gm] that star
No matter how [Dm] hopeless
Oh
[Eb] _ _ [A] The [Gm] fight comes from within
[Gb] Without waking up all the [F] youth
You'll be winning tomorrow
In the _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [D] glorious way
[Eb] Oh, that man's heart
Will [A] be peaceful and calm
[Ebm] Peace and quiet
[Bb] You're sure to find
_ _ [F] _ [N] We all know this
And the [F] world
_ [Bb] _ [Dm] And the world needs peace and [Bb] happiness
[Eb] And once
_ One man scorned and covered with [Cm] scars
[Dm] To run the way
_ There's [Eb] no more to bear the pain [Bb] To reach So hard
To [F] write the path [Eb] To follow
To _ _ _ [F] _ _ reach
_ [Eb] _ _ _
_ I want to reach _ _
_ _ _ _ I want to reach
The unreachable
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] David Ruffin
David Ruffin, everyone.
Beautifully done.
Take a bow.
