AmThough Adam was a Gfriend of mine, I dFid not know him well He was aClone Gin his exiAmstence G He was dFeep into his well I could Cguess what Ghe was lAmaughing at, G But I cFouldn't really tell Now the sCtory's tGold that AmAdam jumpedG, But I've been thFinking that he Amfell G

AmTogether we went tGraveling, as Fwe received the call His CdestinGation AmIndia, G And FI had none at all Well, I sCtill rGemember lAmaughingG with ourF backs against the wall So fCree of Gfear, we nAmever thoughGt that Fone of us might fAmallG
[Chorus 1]
FI sit before my only Ccandle, But it'sF so little light to find my Cway Now this sFtory unfolds before my cAmandle Which is sChorter every hour as it rGeaches for the day But I Amfeel just like a candle in the Gway I guess I'll get tFhere, but I wouldn't CsayG for Fsure C F C
