[E]
In the real early morning
[A] [E]
With the sun slowly rising
[E/G#] [A]
I was walking out slowly
[F#m7] [B11]
Wandering free
[Gmaj7] [G]
When out in the distance
[C/E] [G]
Over the valley
Am6maj7 E/B
I saw an old friend
[F#m7] [B11]
Waiting for me
[E]
Waiting for me
[D6/F#] [E]
She was a young girl
[F#m7] [E/G#] [B11] [E]
She was an old soul
[Amaj7/C#]
As fair as the ocean
[E/G#] [A] [B]
Timeless and free
[D11] [G]
She was my mother
[Am7] [G/B]
She was my daughter
[F#m7] [E/G#] [A] [E/B]
She was my lover
[F#m7/C#] [B11]
She was everything
[E]
An old friend could be
Interlude
A B Cmaj7(#11)
[Eadd11/C#]
I said, "It's been such a long time
[Am/E] [E]
Since we have spoken
[A/E]
There's so much to say to you
[B11]
I want you to know
[Bbm6] [Am7] [G]
I wish you could tell me
[Am7] [G/B] [Em11]
All that you've seen here
[Asus2/D] [Amaj7/C#]
But we haven't got long now
[E/G#] [A] [B11]
For soon, you'll be fading
[A] [E]
And soon, I must go"

I know the way home
[D11] [G]
She said "You are a soldier
[C] [G]
You are a father
[Gmaj7/B]
You are a wise man
[C] [Dsus4] [D]
You are a friend
[Cm7] [Bb]
You were my first love
[Fm7] [Bb]
I won't forget you
[G#m7/C#] [F#/C#]
I'm walking beside you
[B] [F#/A#] [G#9]
I was here when you started
[C#11] [F#]
I'll be here till the end"
[B11] [E]
And now it's the evening
[A/C#] [E/B]
There's a moon slowly rising (ooh, ooh)
[E/G#] [A]
There isn't much more that
[F#m7] [B11]
I wanted to know, wanted to know
[A/C#] [B/D#] [E]
And I am alone now
[E/G#] [A] [B11] [E/B]
She isn't beside me no more
[Cmaj7] [E/B]
But I feel no sorrow
[Am11] [E/G#]
I'd come tomorrow
[Bm] [Am] [F#m7] [E/G#] [C#m7add4]
I'll be on my way home
[E/G] [A] [B7] [E]
I'll be on my way home
