Intro: Em - G - A - A


Em                            C
On wednesday the seventh your flight departed,
      A
you waved us goodbye - we stood on the ground
    Em                         C
as one journey ended another one started -
      A
you passed overhead (your wings made no sound).


       C
This world's just a rock - mow a little bit lighter,
    Em
for me there's a void where your smile once shone.
   C
A new star is born far bigger and brighter
     D
than all of the others - that's where you have gone.


Zwischenspiel: Em - G - A - A


Em                         C
Over the stormclouds you float high above me,
A
knelt in the dojo we offered a prayer.
Em                          C
Yassi was smiling - you saw how she loves me,
   A
I'm sure you look forward to meeting her there.


C
One with the light that was sent here to guide you,
Em
forgotten the cripple asleep in her chair.
C
You dance hand in hand - Bernard standing beside you,
D
you're Ginger Rogers and he's Fred Astaire.
