there’s an empty chair at the dinner table G
where my brother used to sit Am Em
they say that we should take it away G
but I’m really not gonna quit Am Em
thinking that he might show up Am Em
even when he’s been long gone Am Em
I leave a place just in case G D
he hears this sad sad song D G
there will always be a place for you G D
at my table and in my heart Am Em
and someday we will meet again G D
we are never far apart Am Em
we are never far apart Am Em
we are never far apart Am Em
