A
They took you home now

Up to that Big House

Because it's where you long to go
A
Now I recall where,
    D
you 'was' a good friend

The wind will always blow

The church bells ring, and the sky turns grey
         A                 D           A           D
And that big black hearse rolls away
    A                  D           A             D
And everybody tries to walk away
A                  D               A             D
I'm gonna miss ya when you're gone
A                  D               A             D
I'm gonna miss ya when you're gone

[Chorus]
A              D           A        D
Everyday, and all day long
A                 D                A        D
I'm gonna miss ya when you're gone
