I was following you
But you never knew
I just wanted to cry - baby
But you didn’t ask why - maybe
There’s a truth to tell - leave me
To my padded cell
Did you not realise
See it in my eyes - I said
Take my soul as you go - and she said
I don’t want to steal the show now
So she prayed
That one day my pain would go away
Yes she prayed
That on day my pain would go away
This was the first song I wrote in open E tuning and I came up with the chord structure on a holiday in Spain. It was played at most, if not all, of the Sundown gigs and some Four Minute Mile gigs. I recorded this at Chem19 studios with Sundown.
