Separations Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A G Dm

A Gm throughout the whole song

AAs the sun shines down on the Gmland

So her Aheart is crying for Gmlove

But there is Ano-one there

No-one to Gmhear her voice

And she will Asleep alone agGmain tonight

Now the Amoon is high in the Gmsky

In her Aroom, she calls out his nGmame

But he is Asomewhere else

Somewhere she Gmcannot see

Oh and the Anight is dark between them now

My GmGod, my God, why did he go away?

A Gm A Gm

Now the Asun shines on a new Gmtown

With a Asmile, he gets off the Gmtrain

He lights a Acigarette

Leans back to Gmsee the sky

Oh, and he Athinks how much better off he is

withGmout her hanging round

(Let's do it now.)

The day is passing by him

And he has nowhere to stay

At a lonely bar-room table

His mind goes back to yesterday

To the girl who's dead and buried

But her face lives in his eyes

He must forget that face forever,

Make the future start tonight

(Again.)

But the meal he eats is dead flesh

There is cancer in his cigarettes

And the drinks won't do a thing for him

But revive some stupid memories

Then a hairstyle that reminds him

Makes him run into the night

Where the moon hangs high above him now

The same moon that she's praying on tonight

But the wind catches her words

And the moon swallows them whole...

Now the moon is high in the sky

In her room she calls out his name

The night is cold and dark

And she is all alone

The bed is empty now

Her body screams for love

She wants to be with him

Oh, but he's so far away

Oh, and the night is dark between them now

My God, my God, why did he go away?
