_ _ _ [Am] _ _ [Em] _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] As far [Em] as my eyes [F] can see, _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
there [Am] are [Em] shadows [F] approaching me.
[Em] _ _ [F] _ _ [Em] _ _ [Dm] _ _
And [Cm] to those I left [G] behind, _ [Gm] I wanted you [Am] to know,
[F] _ _ [Fm] You've always shared [Cm] my deepest thoughts, [D] you follow where [G] I go.
_ [Cm] Oh, _ _ [Gm] _ _
when [Ab] _ I'm old, [Cm] _
wise,
_ [Fm] _ Beauty was [Cm] mean little to me,
[D] _ Autumn winds will blow right [G] through me,
[Cm] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
Someday, _ [Ab] in the midst [Cm] of time,
_ _ [Fm] When they ask [Cm] me if I knew you, [D] I'd smile and say you [G] were a friend [Ab] of mine.
And [Bbm] the sadness would [Gm] be lifted from [Cm] my eyes.
[Gm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ Oh, [Bbm] when I'm old [C] and wise, _ _ _
_ [Am] As [Em] far as my [F] eyes can see, _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [A] there are shadows [Em] surrounding [F] _
me.
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [Cm] And to those I [G] leave behind, _ [Gm] I want you all to [F]
know,
_ [Fm] You've always shared [Cm] my darkest doubts, [D] I'll miss you when [G] I go.
[Cm] And oh, _ [Gm] _ _
_ [Ab] when I'm [Cm] old and wise,
[Fm] _ _ Heavy [Cm] words they tossed and blew me,
[D] Like autumn winds will blow [G] right through [Cm] me,
And _ _ [Gm] _
someday, _ [Ab] _ in the [Cm] midst of time,
_ [Fm] _ When they ask [Cm] you if you knew me, [D] remember that [G] you were a friend [Ab] of mine.
As [Bbm] the final curtain [Gm] falls, all [Cm] my eyes, _
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bbm] Oh, when I'm old and [C] _ wise, _ _ _
_ [Am] As [Em] far as my eyes [F] can see.
