F Bb F Bb 2x
A[F]nother [C]day is at [Bb]end
[C]Mama says she's [Bb]tired a[F]gain
No one can [C]even begin to [Bb]tell her [C]
[F]I hardly [C]know what to [Bb]say
[C]But maybe it's [Bb]better that [F]way
If papa were [C]here I'm sure he'd [Bb]tell her [C]
[F]Shannon is [C]gone I hope she's [F]drifting out to [Bb]sea
[F]She always [Bb]loved to swim a[C]way
[F]Maybe she'll [C]find an island [F]with a shady [Bb]tree
[F]Just like the [Bb]one in our back[F]yard
[F]Mama tries [C]hard to pre[Bb]tend
[C]Things will get [Bb]better a[F]gain
Somehow s[C]he's keeping it a[Bb]ll insid[C]e her
But [F]finally the [C]tears fill our [Bb]eyes
[C]And I know that [Bb]somewhere to[F]night
She knows how [C]much we really [Bb]miss her [C]
[F]Shannon is [C]gone I hope she's [F]drifting out to [Bb]sea
[F]She always [Bb]loved to swim a[C]way
[F]Maybe she'll [C]find an island [F]with a shady [Bb]tree
