Am

[Verse]
Am
Right about now the midday sun
Is beating down on me
Out there, there ain't a cloud in the southern sky.

[Chorus]
Dm
Here in my heart
G                  C           F
It's as cold as any wintry sea
Am                  E            Am
She said, "How long's eternity?"
Am
I said, "As long as time may be"

[Verse]
Am
In the white, white light there's a big black bird
He's staring down at me
Out there for me, there ain't a hope in hell

[Chorus]
Dm
Here in my heart
G                  C           F
It's as cold as any wintry sea
Am                  E            Am
She said, "How long's eternity?"
Am
I said, "As long as time may be"

[Chorus]
Dm
Here in my heart
G                  C           F
It's as hard as any stone can be
Am                  E            Am
The only thing that can bring her back
Am
Is the symmetry of the cemetery

[Chorus]
Dm
Here in my heart
G                  C           F
It's as cold as any wintry sea
Am                  E            Am
She said, "How long's eternity?"
Am
I said, "As long as time may be"

[Chorus]
Dm
Here in my heart
G                  C           F
It's as hard as any stone can be
Am                  E            Am
The only thing that can bring her back
Am
Is the symmetry of the cemetery
