Left Behind chords

[G]You fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin.
[C]Were you really so blind, and unkind to him?
[Em]Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again.
[Am]Now to close his eyes--never open [C]them....

[G]A shadow passed, [C]a shadow passed, [Am]yearning, [C]yearning
[Am]For the fool it called a [C]home.

[G]All things he never did are [C]left behind.
All the things his [Em]mama wished he'd bear in mind,
And [Am]all his dad had hoped he'd [C]know.

[G]The talks you never had, the saturdays you never spent.
[C]All the 'grown-up' places you never went.
[Em]And all of the crying you wouldn't understand.
[Am]You just let him cry, 'make a man out of [C]him.'

[G]A shadow passed, [C]a shadow passed, [Am]yearning, [C]yearning
[Am]For the fool it called a [C]home.

[G]All things he ever wished ar[C]e left behind..
All the things his [Em]mama did to make him mind,
And [Am]how his dad had hoped he'd [C]grow.

[G]All things he ever lived are [C]left behind.
All the fears that [Em]ever flickered through his mind.
All the [Am]sadness that he'd come to [C]own.

[G]A shadow passed, [C]a shadow passed, [Am]yearning, [C]yearning
[Am]For the fool it called a [C]home.
