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