Like a comet 
                 Ebm/G#   C#/G#  C#/Eb      
Blazing ‘cross the evening sky

Gone too soon 

       G#9     Eb/G# 
Like a rainbow 
             Ebm/G#     G#7   C#maj7 C#/Eb 
Fading in the twinkling of the eye

Here  one   day

Like the loss of sunlight

On a cloudy afternoon

Gone too soon

    Like a castle 
      F#m/B     B7 Emaj7   F#/E 
Built upon a sandy beach 
          B9   Emaj7 
Gone too soon 

       B9            F#/B 
Like a perfect flower 
       F#m/B   B7        Emaj7   F#/E 
That is just beyond your reach

Gone too soon

       Born to amuse,  
Fdim                    Bb7 
       To inspire, to delight 
Ebm   EbMm7  Ebm7 
Here   one   day 
F#/E     E     F#/E  E 
Gone one night

Like a sunset 
             F#m/B           E/B  Em/B 
Dying with the rising of the moon 
          B9   B  Emaj7/9  E  B9  B  E9    
Gone too soon 
          B9 
Gone too soon
