Is to bow my heavy head

I've gone somewhere you cannot follow
Db Adim
Stuck behind me, forever tomorrow

Just a ghost now, always I'll linger
Db Adim
Just a voice on the wind that sings so

Any words that I thought of
Adim Bbm
Die in my mind before they're spoken

You know I love you, but I'm gone
Adim
To the core of me, I'm lost
[Ponte]
Bbm Cm
I've gone somewhere you cannot follow
Db Adim
Stuck behind me, forever tomorrow

Just a ghost now, always I'll linger
Db Adim
Just a voice on the wind that sings so
