PEGGY’S GONE Capo @ 5 Key C

C G
PEGGY’S GONE after twenty nine years
Am F
Three grown children. What am I doing here?
C G
Why am I still alive? What am I supposed to do?
Am F
I ask myself. I’m asking you

PEGGY’S GONE. She says it’s for good.
I say, “That’s bad.” But then I would
“Why am I still alive? What am I supposed to do?”
I ask myself. I’m asking you

                                Am                                  Em

There’s a reason to live. I suspect that it’s true
F G
But can I trust someone. Someone like you?

PEGGY’S GONE. Til death do us part.
Is it going to me? Or will it just be my heart?
A promise that’s kept. A promise betrayed
Is it just as it seems or is it Justice delayed

Am I some old dog you drop off at the pound
If you’re going to leave me you need to have me put down.

PEGGY’S GONE. She says it’s for good
I say, “That’s bad.” But then I would…
