Em       C         D                Em C D G
Some day Darling, when you're dead

Em        C       D                Em C D G
With this wilting world you've wed

Em        C       D
And all I have of you to keep.

Em            C       G
God rest your blessed busy head.
[Verse]
Em                       D          Em C D G
Our words you tell, into my sleep,

Em      C             D          Em C D G
Someday when your shadows flower

Em         C       D        Em C D
And petals blossom by the hour,

D    Em          C       D    G
I'll take my day off to your grave

G
And let the mighty winds devour

G                 D         G
And give you one triumphant wave.
[Chorus]
D                      G    A
God knows that I still hear you.

A        D            G
Darling, I still hear you laughing.

G7             C
But only for a minute

C               D
And then you're gone a minute

D                    G
And then you're long gone

G        D            Em
Like the day from the moon.

Em       C               D
Like the child from his high balloon.
Em C G D [Verse]
Em      C        D             Em    C G
Someday while my mouth's still warm

G                                 Em C D
And everyone has been informed,

Em             C                 G
I'll think of what you said last May

G
To let them not be long for longed

G   Em        G
But buried in some better way,

G              D                   C D
Along the Lake Superior shore.
[Outro]
D                           A
God knows that I still hear you.

A          G
Darling, I still hear you singing,

G7       G      C
But only for a minute

C                    D
And then you're gone a minute

D               G
And then you're long gone

G        D            Em
Like the day from the moon.

Em       C               D
Like the child from his high balloon.
