  Here's the lyrics. 
  
  She peeled from a stretch black snake 
  which slipped up from the hotel door. 
  Darting looks from piercing eyes - 
  The stir of memory and then no more. 
  Well, you know how I have to believe - 
  She can almost remember my name. 
  
  (Chorus) 
  It's been a long time coming, babe - 
  Long time loose amongst foreign hills - 
  Shaking my faith in this free will. 
  
  Years ago in a coastal town, 
  mosquitoes buzzed in her hair. 
  Schooldress torn and bare feet brown - 
  Then the rains came and she wasn't there. 
  You're closing your doors on me 
  when you had almost remembered my name. 
    
  
  It's been a long time coming, babe - 
  Long time loose amongst foreign hills - 
  Shaking my faith in this free will. 
    
  
  Sharp points in an ink-black sky - 
  Faint words collide, then are lost. 
  I'll follow you beneath this dome - 
  Win you back at any cost. 
  I know we were children then, 
  but you can almost remember me name. 
    
  
  It's been a long time coming, babe - 
  Long time loss amongst foreign hills - 
  Well, let's be children, still - 
  Don't shake my faith in this free will. 
  
  Don't shake my faith in this free will. 
  
  With those lyrics I have just wasted 
  all your printer ink.  Sorry, but I had to put 
  them on this. 
  I think the lyric's starting progression 
  is E--F#m and that's all I can figure out. 
  So if you know the rest of the chords, please tell me.
