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...
