 F      Gm7          
Another day is at end  
C               Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm 
Mama says she's tired again  
	Dm/C		Em7		A7	Bb		Csus4 
No one can even begin to tell her  

F        Gm7             
I hardly know what to say  
C               Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm 
But maybe it's better that way  
 Dm/C		Em7		A7      Bb       Csus4 
If papa were here I'm sure he'd tell her  

F          Gm7                 F             Bbsus4  Bb 
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea  
F          Gm7             Eb		Csus4 
She always loved to swim away  
F            Gm7               F            Bbsus4  Bb 
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree  
F             Eb      Bb       Dm	G7 
Just like the one in our backyard  

F          Gm7           
Mama tries hard to pretend  
C               Fsus4	F	F/E	Dm 
Things will get better again  
Dm/C		Em7		    A7          Bb       Csus4  
Somehow she's keeping it all inside her  

    F           Gm7               
But finally the tears fill our eyes  
C                 Fsus4	F	   F/E	   Dm 
And I know that somewhere tonight  
  Dm/C		Em7		 A7        Bb       Csus4 
She knows how much we really miss her  

F          Gm7                 F              Bbsus4  Bb 
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea  
F          Gm7             Eb		Csus4 
She always loved to swim away  
F            Gm7                F            Bbsus4  Bb    
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree  
F             Eb      Bb       Dm	G7 
Just like the one in our backyard  

 Bb          	Eb  	Bb           F 	Bb  
Just like the one in our backyard
