Chords that I use for this:

verse: F | Gm | Bb | C
Chorus: F Bb C

A rough guide is attached as an mp3.

On a log down by the shore
The last sunset of the fall
Tells me half my life is over
The crimson afterglow is all

Of the fading things (X2)

There’s not a bird up in the sky
Not a ripple on the lake
No breeze from the fire up on high
Just the beauty that you make

In your fading things (X2)

Soon I will have to go back down
To the lights below the hill
I bring the third act curtain down
Knowing that your warmth is in the chill

of your fading things (X2)
