Abigail
Verse:
A
Abigail Knew too well
F#m
What Zach was thinking.
A
She watched his eyes Stare at his empty
Bm
Uneasy hands. He started sinking
A
In his chair. She knew Zach cared,
F#m
But didn't know and was afraid
A
Of what tomorrow held. Would he feel better
Bm
If he stayed.
Chorus:
D
And Abby wondered aloud,
A
"Where did the good plans go?
C#m
What do you feel?
F#m D
I know you know..."
Verse:
A
Elevator Music Filled
F#m
A food court in a mall.
A
It was covering The empty sound
Bm
Of no conversation at all.
A
"Back to work," She said to Zach.
F#m
"My break's almost done."
A
"Oh, Abigail I only wish you knew
Bm
Where I was coming from."
Chorus:
D
And Abby wondered aloud,
A
"Where did the good plans go?
C#m
What do you feel?
F#m
I know you know..."
Bridge:
Bm A F#m
Then he turned and said,
Bm A F#m
"I'll go home instead...
Bm A F#m
Abigail, you're not making sense
D
My love...
Bm
What have we become?
D
My love...
Bm D
What have we become?"
Chorus:
A
"Where did the good plans go?
C#m
What do you feel?
F#m A
I know you know..."
