You (G)fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gen tly lift his chin.
Were you (C)real ly so blind

Now, to (F6/9)close his eyes, nev er (Am11)o pen (Csus2)them...?
A (G7)shad ow passed, a (Cm)shad ow passed, (Cm6)yearn (G)ing, (C)yearn (G)ing (A7)for the fool

(Am11)Oh
The (G)talks you nev er had, the Sat ur days you nev er spent,
