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

Am Em
Whoa oh oh Whoa oh
D
I long to see your face
Am Em
Whoa oh oh Haa oh…
