Introdução:
C G
He was a very special warm and gentle person
C G D
Who put the music in the world and spoke in rhyme
Em Bm
And it hurts me that I never really knew him
C G
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
C G
You know he always seemed to be there when I stumbled
C G D
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
Em Bm
And it tears me up to think I never touched him
C G
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Em
Well, ain't that just the way that life goes
Bm
Down, down, down, down
C G
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Em
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Bm
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
C G
But not gettin' into someone I should know
C G
Now he's in another place and I can't reach him
C G D
And I feel as though I'm guilty of a crime
Em Bm
I took all he had to give and gave him nothin'
C G
And all it would have taken was some time
Em
Well, ain't that just the way that life goes
Bm
Down, down, down, down
C G
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Em
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Bm
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
C G
But not gettin' into someone I should know
Em
Dettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Bm
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Em
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Bm
Down, down, down, down
C G
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Em
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Bm
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
C G
But not gettin' into someone I should know
Em
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Bm
Down, down, down, down
C G
Movin' way too fast or much too slow...
