A                       Em                 D
There you stood on the edge of your feather,
              E
expecting to fly.
A                 Em
While I laughed, I wondered whether
D                  E  A
I could wave goodbye,
 D                 G
Knowinʼ that youʼd gone.

Am7           D7
By the summer it was healing,
G               C
we had said goodbye.
Am7                D7
All the years weʼd spent with feeling
G            C
ended with a cry,

Cmaj7              C
Babe, ended with a cry,
Cmaj7  Gmaj7           A
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,
knowinʼ it was gone.
If I never lived without you,
now you know Iʼd die.
If I never said I loved you,
now you know Iʼd try,
Babe,     now you know Iʼd try.
Babe,     now you know Iʼd try,

Cmaj7  G
Babe.
