It's been a really long year

and your voice is so good to hear.

Oh I know that some times

time can slip through our hands.

      Am7                   D
I can make it to Memphis by sunrise
        G    G/F#     Em
for the good it would do.
      Am7                             D
I can stand 'neath the wreath on your doorway

but I couldn't walk through.

for yourself.

stuffed with the whole candy isle.
