Verse 1
A C#m
Ramona, come closer,
D A
Shut softly your watery eyes
A C#m
The pangs of your sadness
D A
Shall pass as your senses will rise
D A
The flowers of the city
Bm E
Though breathlike, get deathlike at times
A C#m
And there's no use in tryin'
D A
T'deal with the dyin'
Bm E A
Though I cannot explain that in lines
Verse 2
A C#m
Your cracked country lips
D A
I still wish to kiss
A C#m
As to be under the strength of your skin
D A
Your magnetic movements
D A Bm E
Still capture the minutes I'm in
A C#m
But it grieves my heart, love,
D A
To see you tryin' to be a part of
Bm E A
A world that just don't exist
