SONG NAME: She's Gone (acoustic version) [Verse 1]
Am          F            G C B
A blackened wick is what remains

Am            F               G C B
The flame was blown out just recently

F            G             C                       C B Am
Although the candle hadn't burned down to the stick

Am                     G F                 G
It won't be lit again, the day won't be so bright
Am
          F                     G
We don't know what she may have been

E7                           F
All we know is what she left behind

Am                          E
An apartment cluttered with children's toys,

E7        C    B
Photos of good times
Am
F                                     G
In the bedroom, there's sheets on the windows

E7                              F
There's a four poster bed for a reason

Am                                 E
There's a box on the floor full of secrets

E                 F G Am
It won't be opened
[Verse 2]
Am         F                     G C B
Here older boys and girls would play

Am      F            G C B
All inhibitions were left behind

F      G                     C    B        Am
As the door would close, her face begin to shine

Am            G     F                  G
This was her finest hour, this was her finest time
[Bridge]
           Am             C             G Am    F                Am
Now, she's gone, and it's not gonna be alright, not for me she's

F            G          Am          Am G F
Gone but not forgotten, she's still here

F            G                    Am        Am G F
In all those years she touched so many lives

F           G                C                     C B Am
Who's gonna watch the little girl she left behind?
[Pre-Outro]
F                 C                   E
Carol Anne stands alone in the school yard

F             C             E   G G#
All the other children have gone

Am    F
After waiting for hours,

    G                Am      F               E
She can't understand why her mother left her sad
[solo chords] F G E Am F G C B [Outro]
F                           G
In the darkness she sees definition

E                                 F
In the silence, she hears someone calling

Am                                    E
After nightmares, she lies in bed screaming

            F                         G
But there's no one listening, there's no one

           Am             C               G Am   F                Am
Now, she's gone, [and it's never gonna be alright not for me she's gone] X repeat
