Di had one friend in high school recently he hung himself with string
his note said,
G"If livin' is the problem, well, that's justD baffling."
Dand at the wake i waited around to see my ex first love
Gand i barely recognized her, but i knew exactly what she was Dthinking of
Awe sat quietly in the corner Gwhispering close about Dloss
Aand i remembered why i loved her, and Gi asked her why i drove her Doff
she said, G"the Aslow fadDe of love
its Gsoft edge Amight Dcut you
Gand our poor friend, F#m7jim,
well, Dhe just Alived Gwithin
Gthe slow Afade of Dlove"
Da woman calls my house once a week she's always selling things
Gsome charity, a phone plan, a subscription to a magDazine
and as Ai turned her down, i always do, there is Gsomething trembling in her Dvoice
i said, &Aquot;hey what troubles you'&quoGt; she said "i'm sDuprised you noticed"
D"well my husband, he's leaving, and i can't convince him to stay
and he'll Gtake our daughter with him she wants to go with him anyDway
i'm Asorry i'm hard to live with, Gliving is the problem for mDe
Ai'm selling people things they don't want Gwhen i don't know what you nDeed"
he said &Gquot;the Aslow fadDe of love
it's Gmist Amight Dchoke you
its my Ggradual F#m7decent
into a Dlife i Anever Gmeant
its the Gslow Afade of Dlove"
(instrumental interlude for about 30/25 seconds)

D (let it ring)
