F  Em  Bm
C  G   F

  F     Em     Bm
I'm overwhelmed
   C          G        F
She stopped in for a spell
 F     Em     Bm
I found her true
    C        G     F
Like she had always  knew


F  Em  Bm
C  G   F


   F       Em   Bm
She visits me
  C      G      F
On Sunday afternoon
 F    Em    Bm
A firmament
 C       G        F
I welcome to this room


Bb        F                     Am              C
   Sister,  dressed in mourning hue, fall to me
               Bb                F
Sent of better rooms leave me in water colored plumes
   Am          C                              D      Em   F
And  melodies, traces of the girl that I once knew


F  Em  Bm
C  G   F


   F        Em    Bm
In evening now
   C        G         F
She shadowed in the grey
   F   Em    Bm
Her covenant
  C    G        F
To slowly slip away


Bb        F                     Am              C
   Sister,  dressed in mourning hue, fall to me
               Bb                F
Sent of better rooms leave me in water colored plumes
   Am          C                              D      Em   F
And  melodies, traces of the girl that I once knew


C  G      D  Em  F
Heyy --   Heyy
C  G      D  Em  F
Heyy --   Heyy


F  Em  Bm
