Band, Ophelia (1975)
Key: :[C#] (w: Robbie Robertson)
VERSE 1:
[C#] Boards on the window,
[F7] mail by the door
[A#7] What would anybody leave so
[D#7] quickly for?
Op-
[F#]-elia,
[G#7] where have you
[C#] gone?
[A#7] [D#7] [G#7]
VERSE 2:
[C#] The old neighborhood,
[F7] just ain't the same
[A#7] Nobody knows just what
[D#7] became of...
Op-
[F#]-elia,
[G#7] tell me, what went
[C#] wrong?
[A#7] [D#7] [G#7]
BRIDGE:
[F#] Was it somethin' that some-
[C#]-body said?
[G#7] Mama, I know we broke the
[C#] rules
[F#] Was somebody up
[C#] against the law?
[G#7] Honey, you know I'd die for
[G#7+5] you
VERSE 3:
[C#] Ashes of laughter,
[F7] the ghost is clear
[A#7] Why do the best things always
[D#7] disappear
Like Op-
[F#]-helia,
[G#7] please darken my
[C#] door
[A#7] [D#7] [G#7]
INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE x2]
