Standard (EADGBE)
If I am lost for a day, try to find me
but if I don't come back, then I won't look behind me.
All of the things that I thought were so easy,
just got harder and harder each day.
December is darkest, in June there's the light,
but this empty bedroom won't make anything right.
Well out on the landing a friend I forgot to send home
who waits up for me all through the night.
Chorus
(Strum from bottom string up for the next part)
calendar girl who's in love with the world, stay alive
calendar girl who's in love with the world, stay alive
I dreamed I was dying as I so often do,
and when I awoke, I was sure it was true.
I went to the window, threw my head to the sky
and said; whoever is up there, please don't let me die.
Well I can't live forever, I can't always be
One day I'll be sad (?) on a beach by the sea
The pages keep turning, I mark each day with a cross
And I'll laugh about all that we've lost.
calendar girl who's is lost to the world, stay alive
calendar girl who's is lost to the world, stay alive
January, February, March and in May, I'm alive
June, July, Auguast, September, October, I'm alive
November, December, Yeah all through the winter
I'm alive
I'm alive
