[Verse 1]
Eadd9           F#7add11            Aadd9
Tracy died soon after a long fought civil war,

Eadd9        F#7add11            Emaj7sus/A
Just after I wiped away his last tear,

  Eadd9            F#7add11     Aadd9    Emaj7sus/A
I guess he's better off than he was before,

  Eadd9            F#7add11                   Aadd9
A whole lot better off than the fools he left here
[Verse 2]
  Eadd9           F#7add11
I used to cry for Tracy, 

                 Emaj7sus/A   Aadd9
'Cause he was my only friend,

      Eadd9              F#7add11          Aadd9
Those kind of cars don't pass you ...every day,

  Eadd9           F#7add11
I used to cry for Tracy,

                 Aadd9              Eadd9
'Cause I want to see him again, but sometimes,

          F#7add11                  Emaj7sus/A
Sometimes life  ...ain't always the way
[Chorus]
Aadd9               E/G#     Aadd9    E/G#
       Sometimes it snows in April,

Aadd9              G#7    F#7sus4      F#7
       Sometimes I feel so bad,  ...so bad,

Aadd9             Bbsus2    Bsus2
       Sometimes I wish that life was never ending,

    F#7add11              Bsus2      E      E6  E9
And all good things, they say, never last
[Verse 3]
Eadd9               F#7add11          Aadd9
Springtime was al - ways my favourite time of year,

  Eadd9           F#7add11             Emaj7sus/A
A time for lovers holding hands in the rain,

    Eadd9                F#7add11    Emaj7sus/A
Now springtime only re - minds me of Tracy's tears,

Eadd9          F#7add11                 Emaj7sus/A
Always cry for love,   ...never cry for pain
[Bridge]
           Eadd9            F#7add11      Emaj7sus/A
He used to say so strong, un----afraid to die,

                           Aadd9          E
Unafraid of the death that left me hypno- tised, no,

F#7add11                           Aadd9  Emaj7sus/A
Staring at his picture I've real - ised...

  Eadd9        F#7add11     Emaj7sus/A   Aadd9
| /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / |

Eadd9                F#7add11     Aadd9
No one could cry the way my Tracy cried
[Chorus]
Aadd9               E/G#     Aadd9   E/G#
       Sometimes it snows in April,

Aadd9              G#7     C#m7    F#7sus4   F#7
       Sometimes I feel so bad------------,

       Aadd9              Bbsus2
Some - times, sometimes I wish...

     Bsus2
That life was never ending,

    F#7add11              Bsus2      E    E6  E9
But all good things, they say, never last
[Verse 4]
  Eadd9          F#7add11
I often dream of heaven,

                Aadd9
And I know that Tracy's there,

  Eadd9            F#7add11      Emaj7sus/A
I know that he has found another friend,

Eadd9                F#7add11          Emaj7sus/A
Maybe he's found the answer to all the April snow,

Eadd9              F#7add11         Emaj7sus/A
Maybe one day I'll see my Tracy a - gain
[Chorus]
Aadd9               E/G#     Aadd9     E/G#
       Sometimes it snows in April,

Aadd9              G#7     C#m7  F#7sus4  F#7
       Sometimes I feel so bad,  so bad,

Aadd9              Bbsus2    Bsus2
       Sometimes I wish that life was never ending,

    F#7add11              Bsus2      E
But all good things, they say, never last
[Coda]
    F#7add11              Aadd9      E
And all good things, they say, never last

    F#7add11        Aadd9           E
And love,  it isn't love until it's passed
