Hello Gracie you're a good little girl

It's a beautiful world oh and you're out in it

Last time I saw you playing in the yard
G D
You were running with the children
A
And the old people were smiling
 
G D A
Do you miss me, would you know me at all
G
If you walked by my house
D A
Would you smile and turn the corner?
G D A
Well your kisses only make it feel worse
G
You know you gotta make the best
 
Of the time God has given you

I scratched your name into a wall on the beach

With you mid-summer in the grass in the field

Nobody was right, nobody was wrong

Nobody is here, so nobody is gone

Of my place down the block far enough away
 
It's like I'm not here
