Sing a Song for You
(Buckley)
TIM BUCKLEY
From Happy Sad, 1968
F# Bbm
In my heart is where I long for you
B F#
In my smile I search for you
(F#) Bbm B
Each time you turn and run away I cry inside
F# E Eb
My silly way, just too young to know any more
F# Bbm
In my world the devil dances and dares
B F
To leave my soul just anywhere
(F#) Bbm
Until I find peace in this world
B F#
I’ll sing a song everywhere I can
E Eb
Just too young to know any more
G# B F#
The wind covers me cold
G# B F#
The starry skies all around my eyes
G# B F#
Far behind the city moans
G B F#
Well worthy of the people there
E Eb
Oh, the psalms they love to hear
F# Bbm
So let me sing a song for you
B F#
Just to help your day along
(F#) Bbm
Let me sing a song for you
B F#
One I’ve known so very long
E Eb
Oh, please could you find the time
