Katie`s Been Gone — текст песни (The Band)

(A) Katie`s been gone (G#m) since the spring time;
(F#m) She wrote one time`n (B7) sent her love
(A) Katie`s been gone for (G#m) such a long time now.
(F#m) I wonder what kind of love she`s (B7) thinkin` of.

(A) Dear Katie,
(E) If you can hear me,
(A) I can`t wait to (E) have ya near me.

(A) Oh, Katie, since ya (E) caught that bus,
Well, I (Bm) just don`t know how things (C#m) are with us.
(D) I`m still here and (E7) you`re out there.

Katie laughed when I said I was lonely.
She said, There`s no need t`feel that way.
Katie said that I was her only one,
But then I wonder why she didn`t wanna stay.

Dear Katie, if I`m the only one,
How much longer will you be gone?
Oh, Katie, won`t ya tell me straight:
How much longer do I have to wait?

I`ll believe you,
But please come through.

(C) I know it`s (F) wrong to be (Dm) apart this long;
(F) You should (Bb) be here, (Asus4)near (A)me. (I`m not sure about those last two chords)

Katie`s been gone and now her face is slowly fading from my mind.
She`s gone to find some newer places,
Left the old life far behind.
Dear Katie, dont ya miss your home?
I dont see why you had to roam.

Dear Katie, since you`ve been away
I lose a little something every day
I need you here, but you`re still out there.
Dear Katie, please drop me a line,
just write, Love, to tell me you`re fine.

Oh, Katie, if you can hear me,
I just cant wait to have you near me.
I can only think
Where are you,
What ya do, may be there`s someone new.
