E            F#        E             F#
Flowers and Gardens, abandoned from view.
E              B           F#
Cry for their love, like I do.

F#       E         F#       E
People talk, they love to whisper
Think of all the boys who've kissed her
But to me it doesn’t matter they

Chorus:
       F# E F# E
Fade away

When we met we fell together
Now she's gone I can't forget her
Love is chance but time won't let her

Chorus:
Fade away
Fade away

           B              E               F#
A lot of flowers in this world are never seen.
         B
I wanna hold you love,
         E                F#
I wanna win your love for me.

F#
Fade away.

For me there was no sunshine
For me there was no rain
For me until I met you
Every day was the same

Chorus:
Fade away,
fade away,
fade away

Fade away, fade away, fade away, fade away
Fade, fade, fade, fade away
Fade away, fade away, fade away,
fade away, fade away
Fade away
