"Open Ground" - Fade Away Diamond Time - 1995
Transcribed by wranglingoutlaw
E MajorE BB
To work like the devil for Your pay
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Was the old song that He used to sing
E MajorE
Before the waking hours
BB E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
Rolled out across the open ground
E MajorE BB
Now I see Him through the window at a table
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Drinking His coffee and talking about the days
E MajorE
Before the time that We knew
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Would not return to this old town
F# minorF#m A augmentedA BB E MajorE
He's waiting for somebody else to save His day
F# minorF#m A augmentedA BB
Or at least to see some light before
F# minorF#m A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
It fades away..... Yeah, yeah
E MajorE BB
To choose no companion It fell right in line
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
With all the others she had known had laid by His side
E MajorE
Before the sleepless morning
BB E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
Showed its face without a sound. Without a sound
E MajorE BB
Now where did the time go all these years
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
After the pictures had been burned And the names have all been cleared
E MajorE
From all that She remembers
BB A augmentedA
It adds up in time To not a thing,
E MajorE
No not a thing
F# minorF#m A augmentedA BB E MajorE
She's waiting for somebody else to save Her day
F# minorF#m A augmentedA BB
Or at least to see His face before
F# minorF#m A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
He goes away...... Yeah,yeah, Oh yeah
F# minorF#m A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
Before He goes away...... Oh.Yeah,Yeah,yeah,
F# minorF#m A augmentedA
Before He goes away......
F# minorF#m
Before He goes away
A augmentedA
She just wants to see His face before He goes away
F# minorF#m
Before He goes away (Repeat to fade)
