Cm6  and  Bm
Now my body is sand and the wind blows through me
Like the soil on your hand I am compost and leaves
 
G      C       Am      Bm
And my life is gone, darling
And now I am free
And my life is gone, darling, like words made of sand
like the shivering trees
 
And my life was a flower and love was the leaves
But nobody saw any beauty in me
 
And my life is gone, darling
And now I am free
And my life has gone, darling, like words made of sand
like the shivering trees
 
When your life has gone, darling, and when you are free
When your life is gone, darling, you're words made of sand
so be nothing with me
