Its Been A Bad Few Weeks

Em7

[Verse]
    Em7
He heard it loud and clear the 
silence deafened him,
Em7/F#
All the lights were on but no one 
else was in.
    G
The candles flickered out, the door 
slammed in the wind
          A7sus4
He didn't notice.
Em7
He was all alone in the kitchen with
 his note
         Em7/F#
It said "Dad, I'm leaving home and 
I'm not coming back for good,
G                                 
This is all you've got so run with
                        A7sus4
 it and take it to your grave."

[Chorus]
     C          C/B Am
It's been a bad few weeks,
     C             C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
            C            C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
      C          C/B   Am
But I know we've still got time

Em7
Darling where have you gone?
You've got me worried sick,
               Em7/F#
I've rang your friends and searched 
the woods,
I can't fucking deal with this,
       G
I'm an old and dying man and you've 
got me on the ropes.
        A7sus4
Now I'm helpless
                    Em7
I've searched your note for any 
clues, using codes and lemon juice.
  Em7/F#
I haven't slept for days, brushed my
 teeth or worn my shoes.
    G
I'm starting to go mad, I'm 
hallucinating too.
A7sus4
Grandma is coming over just to see 
what she can do.

[Chorus]
     C          C/B Am
It's been a bad few weeks,
     C             C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
            C            C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
      C          C/B   Am
But I know we've still got time


[Bridge]
G    Am  G/B        Am
  My son, she's not coming back,
G     Am   G/B          Am
  I'm sorry, you've not come to 
terms with that.
G    Am  G/B Am
  My son, we buried her last year
G     Am   G/B        Am
  I'm sorry, that you needed her 
back here.

[Chorus]
 C               C/B Am
     It's been a bad few weeks,
     C             C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
            C            C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
      C          C/B   Am
But I know we've still got time
