  22 <p>It's hard to tell from the live version what he's actually singing in
  23 the bridge. The suggestion below has the one advantage that it
  24 rhymes. If you come up with something better, give me a hint.</p>

  33 Seven days, seven more days she'll be comin'
  34         B7             Em      Am
  35 I'll be waiting at the station for her to arrive
  36                  B7                   Em
  37 Seven more days, all I gotta do is survive.
  38
  39 She been gone ever since I been a child
  40 Ever since I seen her smile, I never forgotten her eyes.
  41 She had a face that outshine the sun in the skies.
  42
  43 I been good, I been good while I been waitin'
  44 Maybe guilty of hesitatin', But I've been hangin' on
  45 Seven more days, all that'll be gone.
