Am
They cut down the tree where I used to read
D7
My name was carved in it
Am
Couldn't they see it was a cherished thing
E
Why'd they have to get rid of it?
Am E
I wonder what they're gonna replace it with
Am E
I wonder what will become of it
D7 Am
Fading away
D7 Am
I'm fading away
E G Am
Seems like the whole world has forgotten me
Am E Am E
Hey world I'm losing all thought
Am E
You've already took my memories
Am E
Couldn't you give them back to me
Am E
Or do you just want me to
D7 Am
Fading away
D7 Am
I'm fading away
E G Am
Seems like the whole world has forgotten me
(D7 E, G, Am)
Am D7
I found myself in the dark outside
Am D7
It's like I am blind every way looks the same
Am E
Every step I make
Am E
Winds me up in the same place
Am E
Every turn I make
Am E
Winds me up in the same place
Am E
One could say
D7 Am
I'm fading away
D7 Am
I'm fading away
E G Am
Seems like the whole world has forgotten me
