CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: G
D G
She was the fairest
C G
And her eyes shone of blue
D G
First fell in the autumn term
Em C
There was nothing I could do
G D
School lovers swarmed
Em
Around the courtyard wall
G
Then walked on up
D Em G
The rapture road aglow
D
She kept me warm that winter
C G
And winter turned to spring
D
We never looked 'round corners
Em C
To the changes they could bring
G D
Her love was a dart
Em G
And I swore she broke my heart
D
The world would never turn
Em G
The same again
CHORUS:
The things that are, are things
C D
That never can be
G Em
Are things that we must bare
C D G
To share our destiny
D
I saw her again last summer
C G
Where the hard rains fall
D
The grass grew long around her feet
Em C
Where the years took their toll
G D
She once meant the world to me
Em
But we by-passed destiny
G D
On the road not taken
Em G
The road unknown
CHORUS:
The things that are, are things
C D
That never can be
G Em
Are things that we must bare
C D
To share our destiny

All our pictures incomplete
