It all goes by so fast
That's pretty much it for the verse. The chorus is done with chords.
It goes Verse 1, Ver 2, Ver 3, Chorus, Ver 4, Ver 2, Chorus end.
Verse 1:
I'm gonna live my life
Like every day's the last
Without a sim-ple good-by
It all goes by so fast
Verse 2:
And now that you're gone
I can't cry hard enough
No I can't cry hard enough
For you to hear me know
Verse 3:
Gonna open my eyes
And see for the first time
I've let go of you like
A child letting go of his kite
Chorus:
Am G
There it goes up in the sky
Am A#
There it goes beyond the clouds
C G Am
For no reason why--------y I can't cry hard enough
C F Em G C (CaddD)
....No I can't cry hard enough-- for you to hear me now
Verse 4:
Gonna look back in vain
And see you standing there
When all that remains
Is just an empty chair
The C add D thing at the end of the chorus is just something to play with.
It's a three finger C chord, 1st position with the pinky on the 4th string 3rd
fret.

This is from listening to the song on the album and is in the key they do it
in. Of course they do a better job, but my arrangement sounds pretty good with
someone who can really sing. It is done predominantly at first position. They
vary the intro pattern at the end of each verse so after you learn it, you can
embellish it as you wish.
Verse notes are plucked on the beat. If it's in 4/4 time, the TAB notes
are all 1/8 notes. I spaced the TAB numbers out to fit over the words only,
not to indicate timing changes. They syncopate the words quite a bit. It
helps to hear the song the way they do it. I'm not sure I followed all
correct TAB standards, but I hope you are able to enjoy this beautiful song
from my first TAB attempt. I looked this over several times and it looks like
I play it. Send an e-mail and let me know if this gets you going.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official WILLIAMS BROTHERS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
