Spring Awakening – Left Behind chords

Chords:
Transpose:
GYou fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin.
CWere you really so blind, and unkind to him?
EmCan't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again.
Am CNow to close his eyes--never open them....
G C Am CA shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am CFor the fool it called a home.
G CAll things he never did are left behind.
EmAll the things his mama wished he'd bear in mind,
Am CAnd all his dad had hoped he'd know.
GThe talks you never had, the saturdays you never spent.
CAll the 'grown-up' places you never went.
EmAnd all of the crying you wouldn't understand.
Am CYou just let him cry, 'make a man out of him.'
G C Am CA shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am CFor the fool it called a home.
G CAll things he ever wished are left behind..
EmAll the things his mama did to make him mind,
Am CAnd how his dad had hoped he'd grow.
G CAll things he ever lived are left behind.
EmAll the fears that ever flickered through his mind.
Am CAll the sadness that he'd come to own.
G C Am CA shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning
Am CFor the fool it called a home.
