C       F
I've been away
C        F
a year and a day
C              F
You recognize love after the fact
C                   F
You did what you did and that was that

Em    Am
Don't say words
Em       Am
that you don't mean
Em       G           | C   F | C   F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me

C        F
Looking back now
C              F
I only wish I had been kinder
   C                F
Did I ever know love, did I ever know love?
C               F
And could I have been blinder?


Em    Am
Don't say words
Em       Am
that you don't mean
Em       G           | C   F | C   F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me
Em     Am
Don't hold back
Em    Am
all your love
F     | G
for someday, for someday

C             F
I would say that I'm sorry
C            F
if it would do any good
C                    F
But to never regret means you have to forget
C               F
and I don't think that I could

Em    Am
Don't say words
Em       Am
that you don't mean
Em      | Em
When I'm gone, When I'm gone,
Em       G           | C  F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me
