Am There's a grief that can't be spoken.
CThere's a pain goes on and on.
DmEmpty chairs at empty tables
E AmNow my friends are dead and gone.
Am Here they talked of revolution.
CHere it was they lit the flame.
DmHere they sang about `tomorrow'
E AmAnd tomorrow never came.
[Chorus]
C C7 FFrom the table in the corner
Cm7 F7 BbThey could see a world reborn
G/B CAnd they rose with voices ringing
Bb AI can hear them now!
Dm Dm7 BbThe very words that they had sung
Gm G7Became their last communion
F/C C6 Am On the lonely barricade at dawn.
[Verse]
Am Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
CThat I live and you are gone.
DmThere's a grief that can't be spoken.
E C#mThere's a pain goes on and on.
C#m Phantom faces at the window.
EPhantom shadows on the floor.
F#mEmpty chairs at empty tables
G# C#mWhere my friends will meet no more.
C#m Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me
EWhat your sacrifice was for
F#mEmpty chairs at empty tables
G# C#m C#m7 C#m6 C#mWhere my friends will sing no more
