C F
I've been away
C F
a year and a day
C F
You recognize love after the fact
C F
You did what you did and that was that
Em Am
Don't say words
Em Am
that you don't mean
Em G | C F | C F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me
C F
Looking back now
C F
I only wish I had been kinder
C F
Did I ever know love, did I ever know love?
C F
And could I have been blinder?
Em Am
Don't say words
Em Am
that you don't mean
Em G | C F | C F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me
Em Am
Don't hold back
Em Am
all your love
F | G
for someday, for someday
C F
I would say that I'm sorry
C F
if it would do any good
C F
But to never regret means you have to forget
C F
and I don't think that I could
Em Am
Don't say words
Em Am
that you don't mean
Em | Em
When I'm gone, When I'm gone,
Em G | C F
When I'm gone, please speak well of me
C F | C F | C F | C
