A Man Me Then Jim

Key: CCapo 2Medium

G/B

CFCGC

I Chad one friend in high school recently he hung himself with string

His note Fsaid "If livin' is the problem, well that's just bafflingC."

And at the wake I waited around to see my ex first love

And I baFrely recognized her, but I knew exactly what she was Cthinking of

We sat Gquietly in the corner Fwhispering close about Closs

And I reGmembered why I loved her, and I Fasked her why I drove her Coff

She said

The Fslow Gfade of Clove

Its soft Fedge mGight CCut you

And our Fpoor friend, EmJim

Well Che just G/Blived witFhin

The slow Gfade of Clove

A Cwoman calls my house once a week; she's always selling things

Some Fcharity, a phone plan, a subscription to a magaCzine

And as I Gturned her down, I always do, there was Fsomething trembling in her Cvoice

I said "GHey, what troubles you?", She said "FI'm surprised you notCiced"

Well, myC husband, he's leaving, and I can't convince him to stay

and he'll Ftake our daughter with him, she wants to go with him anyCway

I'm Gsorry I'm hard to live with,F living is the problem for Cme

I'm selling Gpeople things they don't wantF when I don't know what you Cneed

He said the Fslow Gfade of Clove

and it's Fmist mighGt choke Cyou

It's my Fgradual Emdescent

Into a Clife I G/BneverF meant

It's the slow Gfade of Clove

CFCGFC

I was Cdriving south of Melrose; I happened upon my old lover's old house

I found myFself staring at the closed up door like the day she threw me Cout

"Dianna, Dianna, Dianna I would die for you

I'm in Flove with you completely, I'm afraid that's all I canC do"

She said "You can Gsleep upon my doorstep, you can Fpromise me indiffCerence, Jim

But my Gmind is made up, and I'll Fnever let you in again"C

For the Fslow Gfade of Clove

It mightF hit youG from Cbelow

It's your Fgradual Emdescent

Into a Clife you G/BneverF meant

It's the slow Gfade of Clove

It's the Fslow Gfade of Clove x9 (I think it is about 9 time that you slow fade out)

Hope this is helpful! Let me know if you have any questions.
