Left Behind Chords

(ver. 1)
Spring Awakening
G
You fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin.
C
Were you really so blind, and unkind to him?
Em
Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again.
Am                                C
Now to close his eyes--never open them....

G                C                Am        C
A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am                       C
For the fool it called a home.

G                           C
All things he never did are left behind.
                   Em
All the things his mama wished he'd bear in mind,
    Am                         C
And all his dad had hoped he'd know.



G
The talks you never had, the saturdays you never spent.
C
All the 'grown-up' places you never went.
Em
And all of the crying you wouldn't understand.
Am                                       C
You just let him cry, 'make a man out of him.'


G                C                Am        C
A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am                       C
For the fool it called a home.

G                           C
All things he ever wished are left behind..
                   Em
All the things his mama did to make him mind,
    Am                         C
And how his dad had hoped he'd grow.

G                            C
All things he ever lived are left behind.
                   Em
All the fears that ever flickered through his mind.
        Am                        C
All the sadness that he'd come to own.

G                C                Am        C
A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am                       C
For the fool it called a home.
