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