Acorde de Song For Adam - Jackson Browne

(capo up 2) 


       G    F#    Em        D       C 


Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him well, 


        G      F#     Em     D        C             D 


He was alone into his distance, he was deep into his well. 


        G          F#     Em       D         C 


I could guess what he was laughing at, but I couldn't really tell. 


        G       F#        Em   D               C                Em 


Now the story's told that Adam jumped, but I'm thinking that he fell. 


 


  G      F#      Em       D   C 


Together we went traveling as we received the call. 


    G    F#     Em  D     C             D 


His destination India, and I had none at all. 


        G       F#     Em       D        C 


Well, I still remember laughing with our backs against the wall. 


   G       F#      Em    D            C               Em D 


So free of fear we never thought that one of us might fall. 


 


C                    G                C                          G 


I sit before my only candle, but it's so little light to find my way. 


         C                       Em 


Now this story unfolds before my candle, 


         G                        D 


Which is shorter every hour as it reaches for the day. 


      C                            D 


But I feel just like a candle in a way. 


 


              C                         G D     C 


I guess I'll get there, but I wouldn't say for sure. 


 


        G      F#      Em       D        C 


When we parted we were laughing still as our goodbyes were said. 


      G     F#         Em   D       C                   D 


And I never heard from him again as each our lives were led. 


  G        F#      Em      D      C

Except for once in someone else's letter I once read. 


  G     F#        Em     D           C                  Em D 


Until I heard the sudden word that a friend of mine was dead. 


 


C                    G              C                       G 


I sit before my only candle, like a pilgrim sits beside the way. 


         C                         Em 


Now this journey appears before my candle 


     G                                D 


As a song that's growing fainter, the harder I play, 


       C                            D 


'Til I fear before I end will fade away. 


                 C                            G D     C 


But I guess I'll get there, though I wouldn't say for sure. 


 


       G    F#    Em        D       C 


Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him long. 


           G       F#     Em     D         C                D 


And when I stood myself beside him, I never thought I was as strong. 


         G        F#          Em             C 


Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song. 


         G       F#     Em    D             C             Em D 


Well I'm not the one to say I know, but I'm hoping he was wrong. 


 


  


C                       G                   C                          G 


I'm holding out my only candle, though it's so little light to find my way. 


         C                            Em 


Now this story's been laid beneath my candle, 


         G                        D 


And it's shorter every hour as it reaches for the day. 


       C                            D 


Yes, I feel just like a candle in a way. 


         C                      G D C 


I hope I get there, but I never pray.
