Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

When I wake, then I'll see

 Someone's open eyes

When they wake, I'll see

 Someone's silent eyes

Would you stay, for a while

 And keep good company?

Do you know what it means,

 To be underneath?

Chorus

When the light comes, I'll be gone

When the morning is upon you

When the evening sees the daylight coming through

I know that they've gone

Verse 2

If I go, you will know

 Where I'm going to

If you go, I won't know

 Where you're going to

To the ground, I can't see

 Where you've cast your eyes

When the sun settles in,

 I'll say my goodbyes

Chorus 2

When the light comes, I'll be gone

When the morning is upon you

When the evening sees the daylight coming through

I know that they've gone

Instrumental part/Outro:

When the evening sees the daylight coming through

I know that they've gone
