   F           Gm7 
Another day is at end
 C                             F4  F  F/E  Dm 
Mama says she's tired again
   Dm/C   Em7   A7  Bb   C4 
No one can even begin to tell her
 F               Gm7 
I hardly know what to say
 C                             F4  F  F/E  Dm 
But maybe it's better that way
   Dm/C   Em7   A7           Bb             C4 
If papa were here I'm sure he'd tell her
 F                   Gm7                                 F                         Bb4   Bb 
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
 F                   Gm7                         Eb   C4 
She always loved to swim away
 F                       Gm7                             F                       Bb4   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                             F4  F  F/E  Dm 
Things will get better again
 Dm/C   Em7           A7                   Bb             C4 
Somehow she's keeping it all inside her
         F                     Gm7 
But finally the tears fill our eyes
 C                                 F4  F       F/E       Dm 
And I know that somewhere tonight
     Dm/C   Em7     A7               Bb             C4 
She knows how much we really miss her
 F                   Gm7                                 F                           Bb4   Bb 
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea

She always loved to swim away
 F                       Gm7                               F                       Bb4   Bb 
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree

Just like the one in our backyard
