Lyrics
You (G)fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gen tly lift his chin.
Were you (C)real ly so blind
and un kind to him?
Can’t (Em9)help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once a gain.
Now, to (F6/9)close his eyes, nev er (Am11)o pen (Csus2)them...?
A (G7)shad ow passed, a (Cm)shad ow passed, (Cm6)yearn (G)ing, (C)yearn (G)ing (A7)for the fool
it (Cmaj9)called a home.
(G)All
things
he nev er did are (C)left
be
hind;
all the things his (Em9)ma
ma
wished he’d bear in mind
and (F6/9)all his dad ev er (Am11)hoped he’d (Csus2)know.
(Am11)Oh
The (G)talks you nev er had, the Sat ur days you nev er spent,
all the (C)“grown up” plac es
you nev er went;
and (Em9)all of the cry ing you would n’t un der stand, you just (F6/9)let him cry: “Make a (Am11)man out of (C5)him.”
A (G7)shad ow passed, a (Cm)shad ow passed, (Cm6)yearn (G)ing, (C)yearn (G)ing (A7)for the fool
it (Cmaj9)called a home.
(G)All
things
he ev er wished are (C6/9)left
be
hind;
all the things his (Em11)ma
ma
did to make him mind
and (F6/9)how his dad
had (Am11)hoped he’d (Csus2)grow.
(G)All
things
he ev er lived are (C6/9)left
be
hind;
all the fears that (Em11)ev
er
flick ered through his mind; all the (F6/9)sad ness that
he’d (Am11)come to (Csus2)own.
(Am11)Oh,
(Am11)oh,
(Am11)oh.
A (G7)shad ow passed, a (Cm)shad ow passed, (Cm6)yearn (G)ing, (C)yearn (G)ing (A7)for the fool
it (Cmaj9)called a home.
And it (A7)whis tles through the ghosts
still (Cmaj9)left
be
hind...
It (A7)whis tles through the ghosts
still (Cmaj9)left
be
hind...
it (Em13)whis tles through the ghosts still left be hind...
Oh.
