Verse 1:
--------

 G                         Bm
Well he jumps in the taxi, headed for the sky

      C                      G
He's off to slay some demon or dragonfly

    G                     Bm
And he looked at me, that long last time

C                        G
Turned away again and I waved goodbye


D
In an envelope, inside his coat

     C                 G
Is a chain I wore, around my throat

D
Along with, a note I wrote

         C              D
Said "I love you but, I don't ... even know why"



Chorus:
-------
                G            C G
But darling, I wish you well

                     D
On your way to the wishing well

                        C
Swinging off of those gates of hell

           D                    G       C G
But I can tell how hard you're trying

                 G
Just have that secret hope

                  D
sometimes all we do is cope

                   C
Somewhere on the steepest slope

                 D
There'll be an endless rope

             G     C G
and nobody crying.


Verse 2:
---------
Same chords as 1st Verse except where noted

Well a long night turns into a couple long years
Of me walkin' around, around this trail of tears
Where the very loud voices of my own fears
Is ringin' and ringin' in my ears

    D
It says that love is long gone

       C              G
Every move I make is all wrong

          D
Says you never gave a damn for me

     C             D         D7
For anything, for anyone

Chorus:
--------

Break:
-------

         D                            C         G
May you dream you are dreaming, in a warm soft bed

             D                       C             G
And may the voices inside you that fill you with dread

         D                     C              G
Make the sound of thousands of angels instead

    D                        C          D  D7
Tonight where you might be laying your head


*Chorus:
--------

And nobody crying,
Nobody crying
