Bb F Bb Eb F Gm Eb F
[Verse 1]
Bb F Bb
My Father's Chair still standing there
Eb F Gm Eb F
All alone since the long night
Bb F Bb
Now it's three years on and I still feel
Eb F Gm Eb F
He'll come home, we'll be alright
Dm Eb
So where's this healing time brings
F Bb
I was told the pain would ease
Eb F Gm Eb F
But it still hurts like the first night
Eb Bb Gm F
That night my brother, my mother and I
Eb Dm
Were looking up at a distant star
Cm Bb Eb F
And wishing we could reach that far
Eb Bb
And back in the house
Gm F
And alone for the first time
Cm Bb Eb Eb Dm
We told each other we cared
Cm F Bb
We avoided My Father's Chair
[Fill]
F Bb Eb F Gm Eb F
[Verse 2]
Bb F Bb
I watch my family, we hold on
Eb F Gm Eb F
We are strong and we'll be alright
Bb F Bb
The clock continues counting down, all the while
Eb F Gm Eb F
And every child will share the long night
Dm Eb
But do the spirits meet again
F Bb
Why am I still so filled with doubt
Eb F Gm Eb F
Is my soul everlasting
Eb Bb
And the far distant future
Gm F
When I knew you'd be gone
Eb Dm
Came too fast and stays too long
Cm Bb
Why do they leave the weak of spirit
Eb F
And take the strong
Eb Bb
When the world turns sour
Gm F
And I get sick from the smell
Cm Bb Eb Eb Dm
And I can't find no comfort there
Cm F Bb
I climb into My Father's Chair
