Am                        Am          Am  
Sweet serenade, in your shade may I rest
Just for a while, won't stay long
I'll do my best
To help you help me to find some friends
That I have lost
Who lie in lands where memories
And dreams are lost

F                                Em        Am
The breeze that blew around her hair that day
F                                 Em          Am
The timeless dress that flowed in endless sway
Dm                           Em
I almost touched her shoulder, she almost turned
to face me
F                            Am
A thousand distant summers away
