[A] [E] [A]

[A] [E]
[B]
A [E] bright sunrise will contradict the heavy [A] fall that weighs [E] you down.
In spite of all the funerals sung, the [A] birds will make [E] their joyful sound.
[B] [A] [E]
You wonder why the earth still moves, you wonder how you'll [C#m] carry [B] on.
[A]
But you'll be okay [E] on that first [B] day when [E] I'm
[F#] gone.
[B] [E]
[B] [E] Dusk will come with fireflies and [A] whippoorwill and [E] crickets call.
And every star will take its [G#m] place in [A] silvery gown and [G#m] purple shawl.
[B] [A]
You'll lie down in [E] our big bed, dread the dark and [C#m] dread the [B] dawn.
[A]
But you'll be alright on that [B] first night [E] when I'm gone.
You will [B] reach for [C#m] me [A] in vain, [E] you'll be
[G#m] whispering [E] my name.
[B] As if sorrow [E] were your [A]
friend and [B]
this world so alien.
But [E] life will call with daffodils and [A] morning glorious [E] blue sky.
You'll think of me, some memory, and softly [A] smile to [G#m] your [B] surprise.
[A]
And even though you [E] love me still, you will [G#m] know where [C#m]
you [B] belong.
[E] Just give [F#m] it time, [E] we'll both be fine when I'm gone.
