Lyrics

There’s a grief that can’t be spo ken

there’s a pain goes on and (C)on.

Emp ty chairs at emp ty (Dm)ta bles

now my (E)friends are dead and (Am)gone.

From the (C7)ta ble

in the (F)cor ner

they could (Cm)see a (F9)world re (Bb)born.

And they (G9)rose with (G7)voic es (C)ring ing,

I can (Bb)hear

them (A)now.

The ve ry (Dm)words that (Dm)they had (Bb)sung

be (Gm)came their last com (G9)mu nion

on the lone ly bar ri (Am)cade

at (Am9)dawn.

Phan tom fac es at the win dow.

Phan tom shad ows on the (C)floor.

Emp ty chairs at emp ty (Dm)ta bles

where my (E)friends will meet no (Am)more.

Oh my friends, my friends, don’t ask me

what your sac ri fice was (C)for.

Emp ty chairs at emp ty (Dm)ta bles,

where my (E)friends will sing no (Am)more.
