[Em] Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she’s singing, [Em]oh, oh, oh Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she’s singing, [Em]ooh baby, ooh said ooh

And the [C]days go by like a [D]strand in the wind, in the [Em]web that is my own I begin again [C]Said to my friend, [D]Baby, nothing else [Em]mattered [C]He was no more (he was no [D]more) than a [Em]baby then Well he [C]seemed broken-hearted, [D]something within [Em]him

But the [C]moment that I [D]first laid [Em]eyes on him, all alone on [C]the edge of [D]seven[Em]teen

Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she’s singing, [Em]ooh baby, ooh said ooh Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she’s singing, [Em]ooh baby, ooh said ooh

Well I [C]went today maybe [D]I will go again [Em]tomorrow Yeah yeah, And the [C]music there well it was [D]hauntingly [Em]familiar When I [C]see you doing what I [D]try to do for me With the [Em]words from a poet and a voice from a choir And a [C]melody, [D]nothing else [Em]mattered

The clouds [Em]never [D]expect it when it [C]rains but the sea [D]changes [C]color But the sea [D]does not change, [C] [D] [Em]so with the slow [D]graceful [C]glow of age [D] I went [C]forth with an age-[D]old [C]desire to [D]please, on the [C]edge of [D]seven[C]teen [D] [Em]Ooh [C] [D] [Em]

Well then [C]suddenly there was [D]no one left standing in the [Em]hall Yeah Yeah, in a [C]flood of tears that [D]no one really ever heard [Em]fall at all Well I went [C]searching for an answer up the [D]stairs and down the hall [Em]Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a [C]nightbird [D] Singing [Em]come away, (come away, come away)

Well I [Em]hear you in the [D]morning and I [Em]hear you at [D]nightfall And [Em]sometimes to be [D]near you is [Em]to be [D]unable to [C]feel you [D]my [Em]love I’m a few years [C]older than you [D]my [Em]love
