Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


Verse 1:
G+G       D MajorD      FF          E minorEm
Someone in my family has died
   A minorAm         E minorEm           FF         C majorC        G+G
My mother she cries as my father he comes to tell me
        D MajorD      FF          E minorEm
Someone in our family has died
A minorAm            E minorEm    FF                C majorC            G+G
He says to me in a voice soft and shaking like a baby

Chorus:
           C majorC            E minorEm             D MajorD
Just yesterday she was here now she's gone
G+G            C majorC               E minorEm                D MajorD
It does not seem like it's real, something's wrong
      C majorC           G+G
She's gone, she's gone


Verse 2:
G+G            D MajorD       FF         E minorEm
I can still see her face as I left
       A minorAm             E minorEm                 FF
When I saw her this morning things were bright and fresh
C majorC                G+G
    It was a new day
G+G            D MajorD             FF              E minorEm
I can still hear the last thing that she said
     A minorAm          E minorEm          FF       C majorC
Now everyone's mourning her death
               G+G
Now that she's passed away


Chorus:
           C majorC            E minorEm             D MajorD
Just yesterday she was here now she's gone
G+G            C majorC               E minorEm                D MajorD
It does not seem like it's real, something's wrong
      C majorC           G+G
She's gone, she's gone


             D MajorD              FF             E minorEm
I can still hear the last thing that she said
     C majorC                           FF         C majorC     G+G
