I couldn't find lyrics anywhere so I transcribed 'em and thought I'd post 'em here. any corrections are welcome. If anyone's interested I'll post chords. She's Gone Away -Janet Smith Early when the sun is yawning And the morning's barely dawning grey I just lie and think about her It's another do without her day She's gone away Don't care much for breakfast anymore With just my coffee cup to keep me company Empty chair at the table, Lord I miss her so Why she had to go, I don't know, I don't know In the lowly blue of evening When the turtle dove is grieving low Me and my old guitar remember The voice that used to sing those Sweet and tender songs that we used to know The music that we used to listen to I can hardly stand it anymore I've packed up her records and some other things she left Why she went away I don't know, I can't say Early when the sun is yawning And the morning's barely dawning grey I just lie and think about her It's another do without her day She's gone away |
