And a river ran, and a train ran, and a dream ran through everything
D
that he did
A E F#m D
There was melody, there was harmony, there was sweet Sherrie, but it

was melody he loved most of all
A E F#m D A E D
An ice cube in a quiet room melts through an afternoon 32 in the shade
A E F#m D
And a books talks, and a magazine speaks, and a window breaks, and a
A E D
movie was in his head
A E F#m D A E D
It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy, when that love is blue, the love is blue
A E F#m D A

A E F#m D A E D

A E F#m D A E D
It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy, when that love is blue, the love is blue
