D F#m G Em
All I'm asking is the strength to see me

through these days, the face of youth keeps turning west.

from their hair, all these flowers from their hair.

When I see your eyes in grey skies
F#m F#m G A
I would do anything to be ...

But all I'm asking is the strength to see me through

D F#m G Em
I wonder why that poor fly died.
