Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]You were my fin[C]est friend,
[D]I spent so many hou[G]rs with you
[Em]I listened to each[Am] line,[D]
the way I knew [G]you'd want me to
You nev[D]er [C]told a lie,
[D]but honest men [G]don't prosper now
[Em]Your truth will [Am]never die,
[D]although you've made the[G] final bow
A stranger in [C]the dark,[D]
the face [G]inside the looking glass
And [Em]now you've slipped a[Am]way
There's no one left to [D]watch us pass
If only I had [C]known
[D]How sad it was to [G]be denied
[Em]How bad it w[Am]as to feel
[D]The loneliness [G]you locked inside
When all the words [C]were gone
[D]An d there were no
more [G]songs to rhyme
[Em]The empty [Am]pages turned
[D]To mock the passing [G]of your time
The stranger in the [C]dark
[D]The face [G]inside the looking [D]glass
And [Em]now you've slipped a[Am]way
There's no one left to [D]watch us pass,
I'll keep you every [C]day
[D]As close as lov[G]ing ever [D]can,
[G]I'l[Em]l sing them all the[Am] pain
[D]And hope that they [G]can see the man,
the torch bright in your [C]hand
[D]The lost ones [G]standing all around
[Em]the ragged flag [Am]of peace
[D]You carried on [G]the battleground,
the stranger in the [C]dark
[D]The face [G]inside the looking glass,
and [Em]now you've slipped a[Am]way
There's no one left to [D]watch his back
So now your race is [C]run,[D]
when all the blossom [G]told of [Em]spring,
the story [Am]now is d[D]one,
the saddest song I'll [G]ever [Em]sing. [C]you[D][G]
