 G (2 fr.)
 Well the morning is fading.... to the day
 G (2 fr.)
 And I lie here and watch as you.... fade away
And  the stillness holds me down  like a thief
And  it robs me of my peace
But  it's all for the love....  of Magdalena
 G (2 fr.)
 And she is a river.... for my eyes
 G (2 fr.)
 I grasp at her beauty.... she floats right on by
Any  man should know.... such  sorrow
Yeah  my tears they know no  pain, ooooh
It's  all for the love....  of Magdalena
And  her scent that she leaves behind, well it tempts  me where I lay yeah
Empty  promises leave me wondering where  she went astray
 And she flickers,  and she fades  oooh oh she fades,  hey....  3 4
 G (2 fr.)
 G (2 fr.)
Ooooh  Ooooh
Ooooh  Ooooh
 G (2 fr.)
 The morning is fading.... to the day
 G (2 fr.)
 And I lie here and watch.... as you fade, as you fade away, hey
Leave  the things as they need  to be yeah
Ooooh  but some things are not  for me yeah, but its uh
But  it's all for the love....
 It's all for the love,  yeaah It's all for the love
 It's all for the love,  it's all for the love,  yeah

He throws in a high barre G chord (root on the 10th fret of A string) at the end of the first verse
also this little fill he does as he's transitioning from Em's to the next chord:
e -----------------------|
B -----------------------|
G -----------------------|
D -----------------------|
A -----------2-----------|
E --0--2--3--------------|
 That's about it. Listen to it to get all the timing down. A friend and I are working on the solo.....
 comments, send 'em my way.
