Standard (EADGBE)

There you stood on the edge of your feather

Expecting to fly

While I laughed, I wondered whether

I could wave goodbye

Knowin' that you'd gone

By the summer it was healing

We had said goodbye

 All the years we'd spent with feeling

Ended with a cry

Babe, ended with a cry

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

Knowin' it was gone

If I never lived without you

Now you know I'd die

 If I never said I loved you

Now you know I'd try

Babe, now you know I'd try

Babe, now you know I'd try

Babe
