D                  C                 G       C    D
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
              A                    C             D
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
                   C              G          C   D
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
                    A             C         G
but I just can't remember who to send it to

           A7                 D
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
      G                       A                 D
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      G                        A                 D
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend now
      C                   G             D
but I always thought that I'd see you again

                      C                      G            C  D
Won't you look down upon me jesus you gotta help me make a stand
           A                     C         D
you just got to see me through another day
          C              G      C   D
my body's achin' and my time is at hand
         A          C         G
I won't make it any other way

           A7                 D
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
      G                       A                 D
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      G                        A                 D
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend now
      C                   G             D
but I always thought that I'd see you again

                                C             G           C           D
I've been walkin' my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
                     A                     C                    D
lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
                                  C                 G                 C  D
but there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
                   A                 C                   G
sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground


           A7                 D
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
      G                       A                 D
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      G                        A                 D
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend now
      C                   G             D
but I always thought that I'd see you again
