She can almost feel the southern wind blow, almost touching her restless
day.

     She turns from her window to me, sad smile her apology
                   Chord diagramG+G
Sad eyes reaching to the door.

Daylight loses to another evening,
and still she spares me the word goodbye.
she sits alone beside me fighting her feelings,
struggles to speak but in the end can only cry.

Bridge 1:
Chord diagramA7sus4A7sus4    Chord diagramA7A7      Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramD MajorD
    Suddenly it's so hard to find
 Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramA augmentedA                   Chord diagramA7sus4A7sus4
The sound of the words to speak her troubled mind
 Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramF# minorF#m        Chord diagramA7sus4A7sus4
So I'm offering these to her as if to be kind
        D*      G/D*  A7*       D*
There's a train every day, leaving either way
        E/D         Chord diagramG/DG/D Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramC/DC/D
There's a world you know,    there's a way to go
 Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramA7A7          Chord diagramB minorBm  Chord diagramBm/ABm/A
And you'll soon be gone, it's just as well
Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramD MajorD
This is my opening farewell

Last verse:

Chord diagramA augmentedA child's drawing left there on the table
and a woman's silk lying on the floor
I would keep them here if I were able
to lock her safe behind this open door

Bridge 2:

Suddenly it's so clear to me,
that I asked her to see what she may never see
And now my kind words find there way back to me
There's a train everyday, leaving either way
There's a world you know, You gotta ways to go
And I'll soon believe that it's just as well
This is my opening farewell
