Introduction:

difficulty
very easy |||||
 G  D  C                             D                                 Em             C 
          it felt like springtime on this february morning
                   G                                       D                       G             D 
in the courtyard birds were singing your praise
 C                     D                                   Em                           C 
i'm still recalling things you said to make me feel
       G                                     D 
alright, i carry them with me today now
         G       D           C             D                       G                   D                               C 
        as i lay me down to sleep, yes i pray, that you will hold me dear
         D                                 G       D             C                 D                 G 
        though i'm far away, i whisper your name, into the sky
                 D                           C           D 
        and i will wake up happy
 G                     D   C                     D                           Em                         C 
i wonder why       i feel so high, while i'm not above my sorrow
                   G                           D               G 
heavy hearted 'til you call my name
 D                                     C                                   D                       Em 
and it sounds like churchbells or the whistle of a train
                               C                             G                                     D 
on a summer evening I want to meet you there, i'm barely breathing...
 G                         D             C                       D                               G 
it's not too near for me, like a flower i need the rain
                                   D           C                     D                           G 
though it's not real to me, every season has its change
                       D                               C 
and i will see you when the sun comes out again
