1. I remember all my life, rainin' down as cold as ice,

      Am                           C

    shadows of a man, a face through a window,

       F                               D              D7

    cryin' in the night, the night goes into…

2. Mornin', just another day, happy people pass my way,

    Am                              C

    lookin' in their eyes, I see a memory,

2. Standin' on the edge of time, walked away when love was mine,

     Am                               C

    caught up in a world of uphill climbin',

            F                                      D              D7

    the tears are in my mind, and nothing is rhymin'.

and I need you today, oh Mandy !

 

Am                                C

    Yesterday's a dream, I face the mornin'

       F                                 D        D7

    cryin' on a breeze, the pain is callin'.
