There you stood on the edge of your feather
Expecting to fly
While I left, I wondered whether
I could wave goodbye
Knowin' that you'd gone
By the summer it was healing
We had said goodbye
All the years we'd spent with feeling
Ended with a cry
Babe, ended with a cry
Babe, ended with a cry
I tried so hard to stand
As I stumbled and fell to the ground
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
And reached for the love I found
Knowin' it was gone
If I never lived without you
Now you know I'd die
If I never said I loved you
Now you know I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
Babe
I looked at the other tabs, but I wasn't exactly satisfied by all the chords, so I
watched Emily play and came up with these ones. I play this song one the piano and it sounds
good to me, I hope it sounds good to you too.
