[Intro]
Dm G C x2
[Verse 1]
Dm
There was an element of majesty
G
In the way the lady said that she
C
Was leaving in the morning for the coast
Dm
And that goodbye should have brought me pain
G
But I watched her quickly check the reins
C
Of emotions which unloosed would cripple most
[Chorus]
D A
Then the thing that struck me strangely
D A
Was the feeling that I had when she was gone
F G
The few that left before had left me empty
F G
But she left me with a fullness to lean on
[Instrumental]
Dm G C x3
[Chorus]
D A
Then the thing that struck me strangely
D A
Was the feeling that I had when she was gone
F G
The few that left before had left me empty
F G
But she left me with a fullness to lean on
[Verse 2]
Dm
So the bitterness that usually
G C
Set in was effectively undone by the girl's uncommon grace
Dm
And the thrust of the experience
G
Was the enrichening and lively sense
C
She gave to my life and to its pace
[Bridge]
Cm C
I don't know where she's gone
Cm C G A
Her wanderlust surely was strong
Cm C Am
love would be made much more sure
Dm G
If all the ladies leaving
C
Left like her
