Intro: D 



verse 1: 
             A     G 
Good morning Lyla 
                       D 
The flowers bloomed months ago 
     D                A                      G        D 
And now the branches hang with autumn's fire 
             A         G 
I wake each morning 
                D 
To feel this ground's gone frozen beneath me- 
                       A                      G        D 
I dreamed away these months 'til you were gone 
D                   A 
And I found myself waking 
                 G                        D 
Curled up in my arms with a cigarette in hand 
                         A                G   Little riff    D 
And the hopes that we held were in my pocket 




         A 
Will we ever be 
  G                     D 
What this world was to you and me? 
         A        G                   D 
Will we ever be crying for these days? 
         A        G                       D 
Will we ever be what this heart held for you and me? 
         A           G    D 
Will we ever be the same? 



verse 2: 
                        A              G#  G 
And I heard you'd been hanging around 
                            D 
Those city boys learned to dance so well 
                        A 
It breaks my heart, it gives me hell 
                G                       D 
I'll go to the meadow where we used to lay 
                 C#  A 
But I still wade into that stream 
     G                      D 
The frozen damn water, it tears at me 
                               A                                 G      
                  D 
But it makes me feel like I'm fighting to breathe and it's only then I'm scared of dying 
                          A                  G                          
  D 
It's only when I see you turn to go that I know I need your love to stay 



         A 
Will we ever be 
  G                     D 
What this world was to you and me? 
         A        G                   D 
Will we ever be crying for these days? 
         A        G                       D 
Will we ever be what this heart held for you and me? 
         A           G    D 
Will we ever be the same?

                              A                             G#   G                       D 
But it makes me feel like I'm fighting to breathe and it's only then I'm scared of dying 
                          A                  G                           D 
It's only when I see you turn to go that I know I need your love to stay
