                      C                       D

  Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

  Em

  Ooh Ooh Ooh

                      C                       D

  Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

  Em

  Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

          C                       D

  And the days go by like a strand in the wind 

            Em

  In the web that is my own I begin again

  C                       D                   Em

  Said to my friend, Baby, nothing else mattered

  C             D          Em

  He was no more than a baby then

          C                       D

  Well he seemed broken-hearted

                    Em

  Something within him

             C               D      Em

  But the moment that I first laid eyes on him

                    C     D       Em                   

  All alone on the edge of seventeen

  

  *chorus*

  

         C                D                      Em

  Well I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow

            C                    D                  Em

  And the music there well it was hauntingly familiar

          C                     D       

  When I see you doin what I try to do for me

          Em

  With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir

         C     D                  Em

  And a melody, nothin else mattered

  

  *chorus*

  

           Em             D               C           D         C

  The clouds never expect it when it rains but the sea changes color

             D                 C          D

  But the sea does not change

  Em              D             C           D

  So with the slow sad graceful glow of age

              C             D        C         D

  I went forth with an age old desire to please

          C       D        C   D

  On the edge of seventeen

  

  Ooh............

  

  *chorus*

  

             C                 D                                 Em      

  Well then suddenly there was noone left standin in the hallway

                      C                D                          Em

  Yeah Yeah, in a flood of tears that noone really ever heard fall at all

                    C                             D

  Well I went searchin for an answer up the stairs and down the hall

  Em                                                        C        D

  Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a nightbird

             Em

  Singin come away, come away, come away

  

  *chorus*

  

         Em                  D          Em             D

  Well I hear you in the mornin and I hear you at nightfall

         Em                D        Em     D            C D         Em

  And sometimes to be near you is to be unable to hear you my love

                    C          D         Em

  Im a few years older than you my love

  

  *repeat chorus and fade*
