You ^Gfold his hands and smooth his tie You gently lift his chin Were you ^Cadd2really so blind And unkind to him? Can't ^Em9help the itch to touch, to kiss To hold him once again Now to ^F6/9close his eyes Never ^Am11open ^Csus2them

G7(no3) C/G Cm/G G A shadow passed, a shadow passed

^Cm6/GYearnin^Gg, ^C/Gyearn^Ging ^A7For the fool it ^Cmaj9called a home

^GAll things he never did are ^Cadd2left behind All the things his ^Em9mama wished he'd bear in mind And ^F6/9all his dad had hoped he'd know

^Am11Oh...^Cadd2 ^F6/9 (Same as verse) The talks you never had The Saturdays you never spent All the grown-up places You never went

And all of the crying You wouldn't understand You just let him cry Make a man out of him A shadow passed, a shadow passed Yearning, yearning For the fool it called a home All things he ever wished are left behind All the things his mama did to make him mind And how his dad had hoped he'd grow All things he ever lived are left behind All the fears that ever flickered through his mind All the sadness that he'd come to own A shadow past, a shadow past Yearning, yearning For the fool it called a home

^Csus2And it ^A7whistles through the ghosts still ^Cmaj9left behind It whistles through the ghosts still left behind It ^Em13whistles through the ghosts still left behind
