F   Gm7
Another day is at end
C        Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm
Mama says she's tired again
	Dm/C		Em7		A7	Bb		Csus4
No one can even begin to tell her

F    Gm7
I hardly know what to say
C        Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm
But maybe it's better that way
 Dm/C		Em7		A7   Bb    Csus4
If papa were here I'm sure he'd tell her

F     Gm7         F       Bbsus4 Bb
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
F     Gm7       Eb		Csus4
She always loved to swim away
F      Gm7        F      Bbsus4 Bb
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
F       Eb   Bb    Dm	G7
Just like the one in our backyard

F     Gm7
Mama tries hard to pretend
C        Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm
Things will get better again
Dm/C		Em7		  A7     Bb    Csus4
Somehow she's keeping it all inside her

F      Gm7
But finally the tears fill our eyes
C         Fsus4	F	  F/E	  Dm
And I know that somewhere tonight
 Dm/C		Em7		 A7    Bb    Csus4
She knows how much we really miss her

F     Gm7         F       Bbsus4 Bb
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
F     Gm7       Eb		Csus4
She always loved to swim away
F      Gm7        F      Bbsus4 Bb
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
F       Eb   Bb    Dm	G7
Just like the one in our backyard

Bb     	Eb 	Bb      F 	Bb
Just like the one in our backyard

F	Gm7	F/A	Gm7	x3
