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