D Em/D D A lady stands before an open window D Em/D Staring so far away D Em/D D She can almost feel the southern wind blow G D Em/D Almost touching her restless day
[Verse]
F#m G D She turns from her window to me G F#m A Sad smile her apology A D G Sad eyes reaching to the door
G D E D
[Verse]
D Em/D D Daylight loses to another evening G D Em/D D And still she spares me the word, "Good bye" D Em/D D And sits alone beside me fighting her feelings G D G D Struggles to speak, but in the end can only cry
[Chorus]
A7 G D Suddenly it's so hard to find G F#m A7 The sound of the words to speak her troubled mind G F#m A7 So I'm offering these to her as if to be kind D Em/D D There's a train every day leaving either way D Em/D There's a world, you know D D Dsus2 There's a way to go Gm A Bm A And you'll soon be gone, that's just as well G D This is my opening farewell
G A Bm A G D Em/D D Em/D
[Verse]
D Em/D D A child's drawings left there on the table Em/D G And a woman's silk lying on the floor D Em/D D And I would keep them here if I were able D Em/D D And lock her safe behind this open door
[Outro]
A7 G D But suddenly it's so clear to me G F#m A That I'd asked her to see what she may never see G F#m A7 And now my kind words find their way back to me D Em/D D Em/D D There's a train every day leaving either way D Em/D There's a world, you know D D Dsus2 There's a way to go G A Bm A I'll soon be gone, that's just as well G D C G This is my opening farewel l
