Amy's Song

	  		
Intro:
 
D     G 
Amy's gone 
    D          G 
And time rolls on 
    D        G       D 
How far? How fast? How long? 

Verse 1:
 
    D                G 
The last time we saw Amy 
        D              G 
She was headed for the shore 
D                G             D    G 
Fighting off the volatile gray skies 

Verse 2:
 
         D             G 
She said now begins forever 
         D                  G 
And that no one knows their time 
   D                G 
We bid farewell not knowing 
           D                G 
That might be our last good-bye 

 
D 
 Amy was a fighter 
F#m7                   G2 
     She cut like Casius Clay 
                    Bbmaj7 
She burned like a fire 
     A7 
Despite these rains 
D 
 Where time was a question 
F#m7               G2 
    She only knew one song: 
                     Bbmaj7    A7      D  
She's singing, "How far, how fast, how long?" 


Interlude 1: D D/G D 

Verse 3:
 
   D            G 
Salvation is a fire 
         D               G 
In the midnight of the soul 
   D                G              D G 
It lights up like a can of gasoline 

Verse 4:
 
      D                 G 
Yeah, she's a freedom fighter 
             D               G 
She's a stand up kind of girl 
      D               G 
She's out to start a fire 
        D                  G 
In a bar code plastic world 

Chorus 

Interlude 2: D D/G (4x) 

Verse 5:
 
     D                (G) 
When everything stops moving 
      D                     (G) 
And I stop to catch my breath 
    D                  (G) 
And ride my train of thought 
                 D (G) 
All the way round 

Verse 6:
 
   D                  G 
My thoughts return to Amy 
         D              G 
And the fire she's begun 
    D                    G 
She came when we were freezing 
    D               G 
And left us burning up 

Chorus 

Outro: D G (3x) D
