Capo on 2
C G C
C G F
One Goodbye For Everyone
F G Am F
Old pair of shoes the last place they were left
F G Am F
Out by the door where they always were kept
C G Am G
Brown laces

(Chord Pattern Repeated)

We stand in line to hear the news

We've not been together since Christmas last year

Room full of children all sad in the ear
F G Am F C
Small faces
F G Am F C G C
And church music playing, playing

(Chord Pattern Repeated)

Our parents sleep and sleep

They don't remember the ones they have left

We find the magazines under your bed

Strange pictures

I play out in the street

And trip on the sidewalk all covered in blood

Tears not allowed, and I pick myself up

No stitches
F G Am F C G C
Absentee giving liaison
F G Am F C G C F
Your memory like disease holds on
F
The fellow has grown out again
F C
And all, all the fields are yellow
F G Am G C F C
You are CD's, car keys, diaries
F G Am G C F C
My family kept these secretly
F G Am F C G C
Your memory like disease holds on
F G Am G C F Am G C F Am F
Absentee giving liaison, liaison, giving liaison
