Shannon

/u>Gm7 Another day is at end   Mama says she’s tired again No one can even begin to tell her   I hardly know what to say   But maybe it’s better that way   If papa were here I’m sure he’d tell her   Shannon is gone I hope she’s drifting out to sea      She always loved to swim away   Maybe she’ll find an island with a shady tree        Just like the one in our backyard Mama tries hard to pretend   Things will get better again   Somehow she’s keeping it all inside her   But finally the tears fill our eyes   And I know that somewhere tonight    She knows how much we really miss her   Shannon is gone I hope she’s drifting out to sea       She always loved to swim away   Maybe she’ll find an island with a shady tree         Just like the one in our backyard Just like the one in our backyard   x3
