Intro
A Em G D
A Em
You look at me with uncertainty
G D
you look at me with urgency
A Em
you look at me with a fear in your eyes
G D
like you're about to fall away
(follow pattern)
But don't be afread to change your colours now
I've known you all summer, and you rose above it all
I see you hesitate to fall now
but it's a pretty good view from down here, too
A Em
And when the wind takes you, it takes me, too
G D
when you change colours, I change mine too
A Em
try not to think, and I will try too
G D
and when you let go I will let go too
I knew you when you were green and strong
you were like a feather on a wing so long
You know I will miss you whne you are gone
But don't be afraid if you just can't hang on
Cause when the wind takes you it takes me too
when you change colours i change mine too
Try not to think and I will try too
and when you let go I will let go too
SOLO PART (key change)
B F#m A E
B F#m A E D
(back to A Em G D)
The cold air is pushing hard on you
I know what you're saying I can feel it too
You'll go through changes and I'll go through them too
Don't be afraid now, don't be afraid
Cause when the wind takes you it takes me too
when you change colours i change mine too
Try not to think and I will try too
and when you let go I will let go too
Em G D A
ooooh ooooh oooooh oooh ooh oooh
