  5 -5  6  6   7   7    7   6   -6  6
It`s a lesson too late for the learning
  5  -5   5      -4   -4   4
Made of sand     Made of sand
 5 -5    6   7  7  7   7   7  -6  -6  6
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
 5  -5   5       -4  -4    4
In your hand     In your hand
CHORUS
-7   7  -8-8  -8-8  7   -7  7    7   7    7
Are you going away with no word of fare-well
-6    -7   7  -7 -6   6   -5    5 -4
Will there be not a trace left behind
 -7  7   7     7    7   -8   7 7   -7-6    6
Well I could have loved you better didn`t mean
 6  6 -6 6
to be unkind
 5    6    6   6   6   6    -5   5  -4  4
You know that was The Last Thing On My Mind

You`ve got reason a plenty fo going
This I know   This I know
For the weeds have been steadily growing
Please don`t go    Please don`t go
Repeat Chorus

As I lie in my bed in the morning
Without you   Without you
Each song in my breast dies a borning
Without you  Without you
Repeat Chorus
