Gordon Lightfoot - In A augmentedA Windowpane


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO:: C majorC

VERSE 1::

I looked into a windowpane
              D MajorD
Last evening in a city far away
G+G
I was feeling sad and blue
                  C majorC
I wondered then if I should really stay

VERSE 2::

Wanting someone to be with me
                D MajorD
In the light of this uncertain time
G+G
Waiting by the window for the man inside
           C majorC
To please make up his mind


CHORUS::
      FF                G+G
Will you be one who passed through but never saw
   E minorEm       A minorAm     FF   G+G
Never knowing, never feeling anything___
     C majorC                          FF
Will you live your whole life through, never knowing what to do
N.C.    C majorC       G+G         C majorC   G+G C majorC
Will you be one who passed through but never saw


VERSE 3::

I walked along the roadway to a fountain
           D MajorD
Where lovers come to meet
 G+G
A augmentedA hobo walked up to me, I could tell
             C majorC
He didn't have enough to eat

VERSE 4::

He said, "Good sir, you look so kind
                       D MajorD
And though the years have stripped me to the bone
  G+G
It seems I am the better man
                   C majorC
For in this place I've never walked alone"


CHORUS::
      FF                G+G
Will you be one who passed through but never saw
   E minorEm       A minorAm     FF   G+G
Never knowing, never feeling anything___
     C majorC                          FF
Will you live your whole life through, never knowing what to do
N.C.    C majorC       G+G         C majorC   G+G C majorC
Will you be one who passed through but never saw


VERSE 5::

"Where will you be, my friendly
                    D MajorD
When your telephone ain't giving out no calls
       G+G
And when the seasons come to haunt you
                     C majorC
Will you still find the springtime in the fall"


VERSE 6::

"And when you're on your island
                    D MajorD
Will you wave at every ship that passes by
  G+G
And will you feed a hungry man
                    C majorC
I thank you, sir, now I'll just say goodbye"


CHORUS::
       FF                G+G
Don't you be one who passed through but never saw
   E minorEm       A minorAm     FF   G+G
Never knowing, never feeling anything___
     C majorC                          FF
Will you live your whole life through, never knowing what to do
N.C.    C majorC       G+G         C majorC
Will you be one who passed through but never saw
                               FF
Will you live your whole life through, never knowing what to do
N.C.    C majorC       G+G         C majorC   D MajorD G+G C majorC
