Verse 1
(F major) (C major) In a (G major) pine forest (F major) cooler than
the (D minor) rest (D major) of the is (G major) land
Lives a young fisherman (A minor)
with (B major) eyes like the sea (E minor)
He built his own (E flat major) boat and
(G minor) made (G major) his own cabin (C major)
but he's broken (C minor) the
(F major) hearts of the (D minor) likes like me
(G major)
Verse 2
Now you must under (F major) stand
he (D major) made me a promise (G major)
there were secrets we shared (A minor)
we (B major) planted a tree (E minor)
We lived in a cabin, (E flat major) I fished (G major) along side (C major) of him
I fell (C minor) under the spell (F major) of (D minor) his sor (D major) cery
(G major)

Interlude 1
(G minor) (C major) (G major) (E minor) (G major) (G minor) (C major)
Verse 3
When he (G major) cast me adrift (F major) at
the (D major) end of the sum (G major) mer
It was not for an (A minor) other but
his (B major) own privacy (E minor)
I fell apart like a (E flat major) rose,
but the scent (G major) of my (C major) longing
Re (C minor) mains and it (F major) weeps
like an (D minor) old willow tree
(G major)
Verse 4
At night when it's still, (F major)
(D minor) with a yellow (D major) moon rising (G major)
When his candle is snuffed (A minor)
(F sharpdim) and he's (B major) deep in a dream (E minor)
I move like a cat, (E flat major)
and crawl (G minor) in (G major) to his (C major) window
And (C minor) lie down beside (F major) him in a (D minor) golden moon (G major) beam
(G minor)
Interlude 2
(D minor) (G major) (G minor) (C major) (G minor) (D minor) (G major) (G minor)
(C major)
Verse 5
The smell (G major) of his skin (F major) is (D major) just
like the sum (G major) mer
When our love was as fresh (A minor) as
the grass (B major) in the fields (E minor)
And ever so softly (E flat major) (G major) I kiss his (C major) eyelids
Before slipping (C minor) away,
(F major) my secret (D minor) concealed
(G major)
Verse 6
Though I'm in it alone,
(F major) I'm still (D minor) in it, (D major) In love (G major)
And love can be lonely (A minor) like
a sweet (B major) melody (E minor)
But just maybe he feels (E flat major) like
a (G major) whisper inside (C major) him
Like an (C minor) angel beside (F major) him,
keeping (D minor) him company
Outro 1
(G major) (G minor) (D minor) (G major) (G minor) (B flat major) (C major) (G minor) (D minor) (G major) (G minor)
