The whole song goes G C G D, over and over :) G The first guy I know who died I can't remember his name C the tenth grade started G he just never came again all his friends sat around and cried D for a day or two G You can say what you want about immortal soul C when that guy died it left a hole G it was my first clue D G that when they're gone they're gone C Maybe Jesus beat that rap we're not sure G maybe you can live forever if your heart is pure D or maybe you'll come back G some day a a king prawn C Maybe angels come G and take you away to heaven or the other way D but from down here it appears that when they're gone G they're gone [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/d/dan-reeder/344931.html ] Me and Stevie Gibson used to walk home from school he used to have this little turn around rule if you turn around the one way gotta turn around the other way or it's bad luck He went out rafting on the river the river went around and the raft went around and his luck got all wound up and he drowned and he was gone (chorus) Two weeks after Dieter died you could call him on the phone and he would tell you that he's not home and it gave you an eerie feeling even though you knew it was just an answering machine 'Cause somewhere deep inside you know that they don't come back when they go and he had gone and when they're gone they're gone (chorus) My mother died in intensive care we were sitting around singing on folding chairs when I got the feeling somebody wasn't there Well I counted noses but it came out right the doctors said she died that night but I felt that hole and I knew that she had gone (chorus) I looked up death in the dictionary one day just to see what the dictionary had to say it's the complete and irreversible cessation of life functions Which is not very poetic but it's precise and clean and if you analyze it what that means is when they're gone they're gone (chorus) |
