Shannon chords
Henry Gross 1976 *
F Bb F Bb 2x
F C Bb
Another day is at end
C Bb F
Mama says she's tired again
C Bb C
No one can even begin to tell her
F C Bb
I hardly know what to say
C Bb F
But maybe it's better that way
C Bb C
If papa were here I'm sure he'd tell her

F C F Bb
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
F Bb C
She always loved to swim away
F C F Bb
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
F Bb F
Just like the one in our backyard
F C Bb
Mama tries hard to pretend
C Bb F
Things will get better again
C Bb C
Somehow she's keeping it all inside her
F C Bb
But finally the tears fill our eyes
C Bb F
And I know that somewhere tonight
C Bb C
She knows how much we really miss her
F C F Bb
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
F Bb C
She always loved to swim away
F C F Bb
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
F Bb F
Just like the one in our backyard
Bb F
Just like the one in our backyard
