[F] [Dm]
[Eb] [F] [Gm] [Eb]
[C] [F] [F] [Bb] My father's chair [F] still standing there
[Eb]
[Gm] Since the [Eb] long
[F] Now it's three [Bb] years on and [F] I [Bb] still feel
[Eb] He'll [F] come [Gm] home
We'll [Eb] be all
[F] Right.
So where's [Dm] this healing time [Eb] brings I
[F] Was told the pain [Bb] would ease
[Eb] [F] Still hurts [Gm] like [Eb] the first
[F] [Eb]
That [Bb] night my brother
[Gm]
My mother [F] and I
[Eb]
Were looking up
[Dm] at a distant star
[Cm]
And [Bb] wishing we
[Eb] Could reach that [F] far and [Eb]
back [Bb] in the house
[Gm] And alone [F] for the first time
[Cm]
We told [Bb] each other [Eb] we care
And we avoided my [F] father's [Bb] chair
[F] [Dm] [Eb]
[F] [Gm] [Eb]
[F] [Bb] I'll watch my family.
[F] We [Dm] hold up.
[Eb] We are [F] strong [Gm] and
[Eb] We'll be all
[F]
The clock [Bb] continues counting down
[F]
[Dm] [F] [Gm]
[Eb] [F]
[Dm] [Eb] Why [F] am I still so filled [Bb] with doubt
[Eb] Is [F] my soul [Eb] [F] everlasting
[Eb] And the [Bb] far distant future [Gm] when I knew you'd be [F]
gone
[Eb] Came too fast
[Dm] It stays too long
Why do [Cm] they leave
[Bb] the weaker spirit
[Eb] Take the [F] strong
[Eb] When the world [Bb] turns sour and [Gm] I get sick from the [F] smell I
[Cm] Can't [Bb] find no comfort [Eb] there I
Climb into [F] my father's
[Bb] [F] [Bb] [Eb] [F]
[Gm] [Eb] [F]
