[Am9]
[Am9] There's a grief that can't be spoken.
There's a pain goes on and [C] on.
Empty chairs at empty [Dm] tables
Now my [E] friends are dead and [Am9] gone.
[Am9] Here they talked of revolution.
Here it was they lit the [C] flame.
Here they sang about 'to [Dm] morrow'
And to [E] morrow never [Am9] came.
From the [C7] table in the [F] corner
They could [Cm7] see a [F9] world re [Bb] born
And they [G9/B] rose with [G7] voices [C] ringing
I can [Bb] hear them [A] now!
The very [Dm] words that [Dm/C] they had [Bb] sung [Bb/A]
Be [Gm] came their last com [G9] munion
[F] On the lonely barri [Am/C] cade at [Am9] dawn.
[Am9] Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
That I live and you are [C] gone.
There's a grief that can't be [Dm] spoken.
There's a [E] pain goes on and [C] on.
[Cm] Phantom faces at the window.
Phantom shadows on the [Eb] floor.
Empty chairs at empty [Fm] tables
Where my [G] friends will meet no [Cm] more.
Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me
What your sacrifice was [Eb] for
Empty chairs at empty [Fm] tables
Where my [G] friends will sing no [Cm] more
