G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
I longed for you since I was born
G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
A woman sensi-tive and warm
F#sus4add9 F#sus4add9 D#7sus4 D#7sus4
And that you were
G#m G#m5+ G#m6 Gm5+
With pride and strength no one would test
G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
But yet have femi--nine finesse
F#sus4add9
And so much more
Emaj7
You took me riding in your rocket, gave me a star
Emaj7
But at a half a mile from heaven you dropped me back down
D#m7b5 G#7sus4
To this cold, cold world

To his cold, cold world

G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
A female Shakespeare of your time
G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
With looks to blow Picasso's mind
F#sus4add9 F#sus4add9 D#7sus4 D#7sus4
You were the best
G#m G#m5+ # G#m6 G#m5+
Your body moved with grace and song
G#m G#m5+ G#m6 G#m5+
Like symphonies by Bach or Brahms
F#sus4add9
Nevertheless, oh oh

Am Am5+ Am6 Am5+
The passion burning in your heart
Am Am5+ Am6 Am5+
Would make hell's fire seem like a spark
Gsus4add9 Gsus4add9 E7sus4 E7sus4
Where did it go
Am Am5+ Am6 Am5+
Just why that you would overnight
Am Am5+ Am6 Am5+
Turn love to stone as cold as ice
Gsus4add9
I'll never know
