The Saddest Thing

Capo 1 Am I have seen the crimson sunset G Dm Am Dm Am casting shadows on a lonely beach. Am I have witnessed stars of nighttime G Dm Am Dm Am light their silver patterns out of reach. Dm E I have watched the soaring eagle fly Am Dm Am through blue and endless skies. Dm E I have felt the look of love shine in Am Dm Am your dark and searching eyes. Dm G But the saddest thing I've ever seen Am Dm Am was when you walked away. Dm E But the saddest thing I've ever seen Am Dm Am was when you walked away. Am I have heard the roar of thunder G Dm Am Dm Am rip across a stormy summer night. Am I have watched those white and weightless G Dm Am Dm Am clouds of morning sail out of sight. Dm E I have felt most cherished moments slipping Am Dm Am through the gripping hands of hope. Dm E I have heard the violent final snapping Am Dm Am of the last strand of the rope. Dm E But the saddest thing I've ever seen Am Dm Am was when you walked away. Dm G But the saddest thing I've ever seen Am Dm Am was when you walked away.
