     E6    B7  E6      F#m          E6
The breeze and I are saying with a sigh

      G  G/F#  Em  F#m        E6
That you           no longer care;

     E6    B7  E6     F#m            E6
The breeze and I are whispering goodbye

      G  G/F#  Em  F#m          E6        Bm7
To dreams          we used to share.

 F#m7
Ours was a love song 

      G#m7     C#m7
That seemed constant as the moon,

  F#m7       B7                E    E+7   E7
Ending in a strange, mournful tune;

   F#m7       B7       E               C#m7
And now, somehow, we know your love is gone

G#m7          F#m7   B7
And we wonder why, 

               E  E+7  F#m7  B7
The breeze and I,

               E  E+7  F#m7  B7
The breeze and I,

               E  E+7  F#m7  B7   E6
The breeze and I.
