[Dm] [G]
[Dm] [G] [C]
Red telephone sitting by my [Em] bed, [F] practically bore your name
[Dm] Lying alone in the twilight zone, waiting [G] for your call to come [Em] in
Hadn't been for the kid who was sleeping upstairs, [C] you'd have found me
[G] Well on my [D] way, on that [G] midnight plane to LA
[Dm] You suffered [G] sweeter for me [Dm] than anyone [G] I've [C] ever known
[D] [C]
I dared to look into the [Em] ears, [F] would you still have your way?
[Dm] I dared to peer through my tears, [G] could we ever have a life?
[Em] Even thought I was pregnant by you, [C] but I didn't care
I [G] just talked to my [D] son, would he [G] mind another one?
[Dm] You suffered [G] sweeter for me [Dm] than anyone [G] I've [C] ever known
[C]
Once more the mist rolls to the [Em] sea, like a [F] hundred times we've known
[Dm] Trees are faded and the clouds are stopped where the [G] wind had blown
[Em] How I dread when the evening comes and [C] I cannot be
What [G] you want me to [D] be, when you [G] are next to me
[C] How silent you are as the veils come [Em] down before [F] my [Am] eyes
[Dm] Soft and reserved as you move away, [G] donning your disguise
[Em] What a beat folk song that I ever knew, [C] once more comes true
[G] That love grows [D] old [G] and waxes cold
[Dm] You [G] suffered sweeter for me [Dm] than anyone [G] I've [C] ever known
Just one favor of you my [Em] love, if [F] I should die today
[Dm] Take me down to where the hills meet the sea on [G] a stormy day
[Em] Ride a ridge on a snow white horse and throw [C] my ashes away
To [G] the wind and the [D] sand where [G] my song began
[Dm] You [G] suffered sweeter for me [Dm] than anyone [G] [Am] I've ever known
[G] [C]
