[Verse 1]
Eadd9           F#7/11                 Amaj9
Tracy died soon after a long fought ...civil war,
Eadd9        F#7/11              Asus2#11
Just after I wiped away his last tear,
  Eadd9             F#7/11         Amaj9       Asus2#11
I guess he's better off than he--- was before,
  Eadd9            F#7/11                     Amaj9
A whole lot better off than the fools he left here!

[Verse 2]
  Eadd9           F#7/11                  Asus2#11      Aadd9
I used to cry for Tracy, 'cause he was my only friend,
      Eadd9              F#7/11            Amaj9
Those kind of cars don't pass you ...every day,
Eadd9               F#7/11                  Aadd9
  I used to cry for Tracy, 'cause I want to see him again,
     Eadd9               F#7/11                   Asus2#11
But sometimes, sometimes life ...ain't always the way!

[Chorus]
Aadd9                E/G#     Aadd9    E/G#
        Sometimes it snows in April,
Aadd9               G#7    F#7sus4      F#7
        Sometimes I feel so bad,  ...so bad,
Aadd9               Bbsus2    Bsus2
        Sometimes I wish that life was never ending,
    F#7/11               Aadd9         E       E6  E9
And all good things, they say, never last!

[Verse 3]
  Eadd9             F#7/11            Amaj9
Springtime was al - ways my favourite time of year,
  Eadd9           F#7/11               Asus2#11
A time for lovers holding hands in the rain,
      Eadd9              F#7/11         Asus2#11
Now springtime only re - minds me of ...Tracy's tears,
Eadd9          F#7/11                   Asus2#11
Always cry for love,   ...never cry for pain!

[Bridge]
                Eadd9             F#7/11            Asus2#11
He----- used to say so strong, un------afraid ...to die,
                           Amaj9           E
Unafraid of the death that left me hypno - tised,
    F#7/11                             Amaj9   Asus2#11
No, staring at his picture I've real - ised...

  Eadd9         F#7/11         Asus2#11        Aadd9
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |

Eadd9                   F#7/11       Aadd9
No one could cry ...the way my Tracy cried!

[Chorus]
Aadd9                E/G#     Aadd9   E/G#
        Sometimes it snows in April,
Aadd9               G#7     F#7sus4    F#7
        Sometimes I feel so bad------------,
       Aadd9              Bbsus2    Bsus2
Some - times, sometimes I wish that life was never ending,
    F#7/11                Aadd9      E     E6  E9
But all good things, they say, never last!

[Verse 4]
  Eadd9          F#7/11                   Amaj9
I often dream of heaven, and I know that Tracy's there,
  Eadd9            F#7/11           Asus2#11
I know that he has found ...another friend,
Eadd9                F#7/11               Asus2#11
Maybe he's found the answer to all ...the April snow,
Eadd9                 F#7/11           Asus2#11
Maybe one day ...I'll see my Tracy a - gain!

[Chorus]
Aadd9                E/G#     Aadd9     E/G#
        Sometimes it snows in April,
Aadd9               G#7     F#7sus4     F#7
        Sometimes I feel so bad,  ...so bad,
Aadd9               Bbsus2    Bsus2
        Sometimes I wish that life was never ending,
    F#7/11                Aadd9      E
But all good things, they say, never last...

[Coda] 
    F#7/11                Aadd9       E
And all good things, they say, never last...
    F#7/11         Aadd9              E
And love, it isn't love ...until it's passed!
