Count: 2/4-bars INTRO: Dm-add9 x 4-bars How delicate the tracery of her fine lines Like the moonlight lacetops of the evening pines Like a song half heard through a closed door          Like an old book when you cannot read the writing anymore                       How innocent her visage as my child lover lies        Pressed against the rainswept windy windows of my eyes                          Like an antique etching glass design   That somehow turned out wrong          Bbmaj                                Am     Am I keep looking through old varnish At my late lover’s body Caught on ancient canvas    And decaying...disappearin    Even as I sing this song           Instrumental Bridge:                  // / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / :/: / :/: : // to verse; Repeat Chord sequence of 1st verse                How secretly and silently my sorrow disappears You can’t see it with your eyes or hear it with your ears It’s like a Watermark that’s never there and never really gone I keep looking through old varnish At my late lover’s body Caught on ancient canvas And decaying...disappearing Even as I sing this song Even as I sing this song Even as I sing this song
