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

Alternate chords
F  = D
C  = A
Bb = G
