Her soft breath was gentle on his neck
F#m C# F#m
If he could choose the time to die
C#
Then he would come and go like this
F#m F#m(2) F#m
Underneath a painted sky
A C#7/G# F#m
She woke up and called him "Charlie" by mistake

Tarnished silver band peels off a phrase

And then warms their hands around the brazier

Your soft plaintive whistling

The "toodle-oos" and "Oh, my dears" down at The Argyle
