Am7        D        G    D/G  C/G 
COME TO SUCH A PLACE 
(Verse 3) 
WE TALKED UNTIL THE WIND DIED DOWN 
THE BABY WOKE AND STIRRED 
SHE MADE A LITTLE HUSHING SOUND 
SPOKE SOME MAGIC WORD 
THE BABY YAWNED AND SMILED AT ME 
AS SHE SAID WE CAN'T STAY 
SHE THANKED ME FOR MY KINDNESS 
TURNED AND WALKED AWAY 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
(Verse 4) 
I THINK ABOUT THEM ALL THE TIME 
I HOPE THEY'VE FOUND A HOME 
IT SEEMS THAT IT'S MY CALLING NOW 
TO WALK THESE STREETS ALONE 
SOMETIMES WHEN THE WIND IS RIGHT 
I CAN SMELL HER SWEET PERFUME 
AND THINK ABOUT THE WARM EMBRACE 
THAT ENDED ALL TOO SOON 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
