[Verse 1]
G You fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin. C Were you really so blind, and unkind to him? Em Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again. Am C Now to close his eyes--never open them....
[Pre-Chorus]
G C Am C A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning Am C For the fool it called a home.
[Chorus 1]
G C All things he never did are left behind. Em All the things his mama wished he'd bear in mind, Am C And all his dad had hoped he'd know. G C Em Am Oh-oh-oh-ooh-oh G The talks you never had, the saturdays you never spent. C All the 'grown-up' places you never went. Em And all of the crying you wouldn't understand. Am C You just let him cry, 'make a man out of him.'
[Pre-Chorus]
G C Am C A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning Am C For the fool it called a home.
[Chorus 2]
G C All things he ever wished are left behind... Em All the things his mama did to make him mind, Am C And how his dad had hoped he'd grow.
[Chorus 3]
G C All things he ever lived are left behind... Em All the fears that ever flickered through his mind. Am C All the sadness that he'd come to own. G C Em Am Oh-oh-oh-ooh-oh G C Em Am Oh-oh-oh-ooh-oh G C Em Am Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
G C Am C A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning Am C For the fool it called a home.
