Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear I wish that you were here
Am Dm C G
And I wish that you could hear this song that I sing
Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear I wish that you were here
Am Dm C G
And maybe your babies would sing along with me
Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear it?s too bad you had to leave.
Am Dm C G
I never got the chance to tell you, you?re my favorite family.
Am Dm C G
That imaginary mouse that you gave to me,
Am Dm C G
has always been one of my favorite memories
Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear you know that everyone agreed
Am Dm C G
losing you and your babies was the biggest tragedy
Am Dm C G
For the first time in my life I saw my daddy cry.
Am Dm C G
Everyone kept asking oh why oh why
C Am F
And I asked God to save, at least your little babies.
C
But he let me down.
C Am F C
And that?s when I decided, that there must not be any God around.
Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear how old would your baby be
Am Dm C G
If you would?ve brought him to our house on that Halloween?
Am Dm C G
It was 1984, so I guess he?d be 19
Am Dm C G
I wonder, I wonder. What he would think of me.
Am Dm C G
Oh pity for your lover the one you left behind,
Am Dm C G
The father of your children who lost his whole life.
Am Dm C G
Your family was trying, your future was so bright.
Am Dm C G
All anyone could say is that just isn?t right.
G C D C G D C D
?Oh yeah life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone.?
G C D C G D C D
?Oh yeah life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone.
G C G C
And I hope that you are right, and I hope that I am wrong.
G C G C
And I hope those are more than words to a silly song.
G C G C
Yeah I hope that you are right, and I hope that I am wrong.
Am Dm C G
Oh sister my dear they said the only one to blame
Am Dm C G
Was the electricity that made the spark into a flame.
Am Dm C G
With your baby in your arms you tried so hard to flee
Am Dm C G
Then the darkness filled your lungs and put you all to sleep
