Abandoned

Gm                          Dm
 Once my life was plain and clear
         Gm
I recall
                      Dm
Once my ignorance was bliss
Gm   Dm   Am
Nightfall came
C                Gm
Like a serpent’s kiss
Eb5   F5       Gm
To my troubled mind

G#  Cm           Gm  G#
Why,   oh why my God
          Cm                  Gm
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
  G#  Cm         Gm   G#
Behind the old façade
           G#          Fm
I'm your bewildered child
   Gm
So take me cross the river wide


Gm                      Dm         Gm
 Binding promisses were made on my soul
                       Dm
Grand illusions lead astray
Gm  Dm   Am    C              Gm
Ice cold winds swept my heart away
Eb5      F5      Gm  ( Eb5 F5 )
Bring me back to you

G#  Cm           Gm  G#
Why,   oh why my God
          Cm                  Gm
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
  G#  Cm         Gm   G#
Behind the old façade
           G#          Fm
I'm your bewildered child
   Gm                      Cm
So take me cross the river wide

Cm
 I remember a song
Dm              Eb5 F5
Like in a dream
Cm
 When September was long
    Dm            Eb5 F5
And winter unreal

Interlude:
C#m Ebm E5 F#5 Gm

G#         Cm        Gm   G#
Why, oh why, my God above
          Cm                  Gm
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
  G#  Cm         Gm   G#
Behind the old façade
           G#          Fm
I'm your bewildered child
   Gm                     Cm
So take me cross the river wide
