my opening farewell  Bonnie Raitt



  [Bb]Baby   [C/Bb]stands before [Eb/Bb]that open [Bb]window [Eb/Bb]looking [Bb]so [C/Bb]far   [Eb/Bb]away
[Bb]He can almost [C/Bb]feel the [Eb/Bb]southern winds [Bb]blow
[Eb/Bb]Gently [Bb]touching his [Eb]restless [Bb]day
[Fsus]He tu[F7]rns from his w[Eb]indow to m[Bb]e
[Eb]Sad [Dm]smile his [F7sus]apology sad eyes reaching to the [Eb]door
[Bb]         [C/Bb]         [Eb/Bb]        [Bb]          [Eb/Bb] [Bb] [C/Bb] [Eb/Bb]Daylight loses to another evening and still  he spares me the word
goodbye
[Bb]He sits a[C/Bb]lone beside me f[Eb/Bb]ighting his f[Bb]eelings
[Eb/Bb]Struggles to [Bb]speak but  in the end can [Eb/Bb]only  [Bb]cry
[Fsus]Sudden[F7]ly it's so [Eb]hard to [Bb]find
[Eb]The sound of the [Dm]words to speak his  [F7sus]troubled mind
[Eb]So I'm offering [Dm]these to him as [Fsus]if to be kind
There's a [Bb]train every [Eb]day [F]leaving either [Bb]way
There's a [C/Bb]world you kno[Eb/Bb]w       [Bb]there's a way to [C]go and
[Eb]You'll soon be [F7]gone it's just as [Gm]well   [Eb]this is my opening fare[Bb]well
[Bb]          [C/Bb]              [Eb]       [Bb]     [Eb/Bb] [Bb] [C/Bb] [Eb/Bb]A child's drawings left on the table  and a woman's silk lying on the
floor
[Bb]I would keep them [C/Bb]here [Eb]if I were [Bb]able
[Eb/Bb]To lock you [Bb]safe behind this [Eb/Bb]open  [Bb]door
[F7sus]But suddenly it's so [Eb]clear to [Bb]me
[Eb]That I asked you to [Dm]see what you may [F7sus]never see
[Eb]And now my kind words [Dm]find their way [F7sus]back to me
There's a [Bb]train every [Eb]day [F]leaving either [Bb]way
There's a [C/Bb]world you kno[Eb/Bb]w       [Bb]got a way to go a[C]nd
[Eb]You'll soon be [F7]gone it's just as [Gm]well   [Eb]this is my opening fare[Bb]well
