F                            C 
Where she leads me I do not know 
F                            C 
Well, she leads me where she goes 
G Am    D         G7 
I can't find her nowhere 
          C                  
Well, she needs me here 
    F                      C     
All aware I can't hear her walk 
F                       C 
I just cannot hear her talk 
G          Am          D         G7 
Though sometimes, you know you will 
             C  
And when she comes my way 
F                              C 
I'll just be left any night or day 
Em     Dm       G 
I will hear her say 
          C        G 
That I don't wanna try 
     Am       F 
I tried, also cried 
    C G                 F 
But I can't leave her behind 
 
Final: F  Em  Dm  C
