The Last Word -The Nadas Verse- (Em G x3) D C Chorus- C G D On a distant island, from a special place Looking down on us with a smiling face Strong as a pillar, mighty as the waves Crashing down erase our tracks away She can see all from her secret garden She still visits that special place She has recieved a lifetime pardon from her pain Whispered in the hallway crying tears of shame Suddenly your daughter's whisked away Learning by the hard way, shouldering your pain You promised I would not end up that way A firey star that is now departed A fire burning yellow in my base The story ends the author long since started Not erased she used to say No no no no Please don't go away Your always moving take the time to stay My finest hour is a day away I can say Your mind's clear and easy but your bodies gone away You still knew us on that special day You taught us when to vanish, but you told us when to stay I saw the years of wisdom on your face I will see you on the road to heaven I will know you by your easy way Harmony sung in clear perfection You will say, you used to say No no no no Please don't go away Your always moving take the time to stay My finest hour is a day away I can say No no no no Yeah yeah yeah yeah No no no no no
