B F#/A# Cadd9 B
So long, fare thee well
G#m B C#m F#
The dancer and the dancing days have taken leave and fell
B F#/A# Cadd9 B
So turn down this bed of stone
G#m C#m E F# B - C#m C#m/D#
Quench me with the deadly nightshade from the rose that you belong
E B C#m - C#m/D#
The long December rain is falling now
E B G#m
Running down on streets to nowhere
E B C#m
Music is my life you're my sweetest nightingale
Bm7flat5 G#7 C#m - C#m/D# E
But I can't hear it here no more
B - F#/A# - Cadd9 - Cadd9
And I go
B - F#/A# - Cadd9 - Cadd9
I go
B F#/A# Cadd9 B
Hush now, don't shake or break
G#m B C#m F#
Words have fallen silent like soldiers to the grave
B F#/A# Cadd9 B
No matter what they do or say
G#m C#m E F# B C#m - C#m/D#
Lay me on the sleepy meadow by the tracks upon your face
