Absent Friends

G          D                 Em                    Bm
Time heals wounds, they say. Time takes the pain away.
C        D            C           D
I wonder why it never happens for me.
     G               D            Em          Bm
It's years since you went away but I miss you night and day.
C              D       C         G
Why you had to go is a mystery to me.

G                     D            Em      Bm
What seemed important then becomes trivial when
C              D         C           D
Fate deals the card that forces your hand.
        G           D             Em            Bm
All the places we'd been, all the things we had seen,
   C           D           C         G
No more in the future; it just isn't planned.

G             D                 Em         Bm
It's all very strange, but when you went, I changed.
C                 D               C               G
It just seemed to happen with the passing of each day.
  G          D            Em        Bm
I don't understand. Is it part of a plan?
     C          D         C             G
Does one person grow when another fades away?

G          D                 Em                  Bm

Small things you'd do weave pictures of you.
        C           D           C           D
They're printed for life on the back of my mind.
      G         D          Em            Bm
I was always so sure. Your life was so pure.
       C             D           C               G
To the faults and to bad times a loved one stays blind.

G  D  Em  Bm  C  D  C  G

G           D           Em           Bm
I always found that when you were around,
C              D             C            D
You helped me with worries and eased all my fears.
G           D            C            Bm
You always had time for problems of mine,
C            D         C          G
A shoulder to cry on, a listening ear

G          D                Em                    Bm
