The Fade
THE FADE
D Am Em G D Am
A coffee stain dried and faint covers up the date
Em G D
On a picture that I found in the attic on the ground of your old place
Am
It's black and white and in this light it's hard to tell
Em G D
If the glasses on your face were the same ones on the day they buried you
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
I long to see your face
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
A picture in its place
Am
It's been a year and now I fear the fade is on
Em G D
It's the slowly turning down of the well acquainted sound of your old voice
Am
The way you laughed when others laughed was welcoming
Em G D
It's the way I see you look at whoever it was that took this photograph
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
I long to see your face
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
A picture in its place
D Am C (C#)D
D Am C (C#)D
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
I long to see your face
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Haa oh...
