One By One

INTRO: G

                                  C
One by one my teardrops fall as I write to you
       D                              G
One by one my dreams are fading fast away
                                        C
One by one my hopes keep docking in the twilight
       D                                G      D
One by one my words come falling on the page


CHORUS:
                      G             D
One by one my hair is turning grey
                         G                  D
One by one my dreams are fading fast away
                       G             D
One by one I read your letters over
                           G     D   G
One by one I lay them all away


                                  C
One by one my flowers are fading in the sunrise
       D                                   G
One by one the leaves keep falling from my trees
                                         C
One by one these wrinkles feel across my brow, dear
       D                               G
One by one my snowflakes tumble in the breeze


                                         C
One by one my years of youth are passing by me
       D                                G
One by one the sweetest days of life go by
                                   C
One by one the hours slipping up behind you
       D                           G
One by one she'll find not you and I


CHORUS:
D                     G             D
One by one my hair is turning grey
                         G                  D
One by one my dreams are fading fast away
                       G             D
One by one I read your letters over
                           G     D   G
One by one I lay them all away


                                   C
One by one I hear your sweet voice whisper
       D                            G
One by one I feel your kisses on my cheek
                                          C
One by one I hope you'll say the words to marry
       D                             G
One by one, one by one we'll forever be


CHORUS:
D                     G             D
One by one my hair is turning grey
                         G                  D
One by one my dreams are fading fast away
                       G             D
One by one I read your letters over
                           G
One by one I lay them all away
