C                     E7
Boards on the window, mail by the door
A7                          D7
What would anybody leave so quickly for
   F   G7                       C  A7 D7
Ophelia Tell me where have you gone

C                      E7
The old neighbourhood, just ain't the same
A7               D7
Nobody knows just what became of
   F   G7                   C
Ophelia Tell me what went wrong

Chorus:
F                          C
Was it something that somebody said
G7                         C
Mama, I know we broke the rules
F                 C
Was somebody up against the law
G7
Honey, you know I'd die for you

Ashes of laughter, the ghost is clear
Why do the best things always disappear
Like Ophelia
Please darken my door

Chorus

They got your number, scared and running
But I'm still waiting for the second coming
Of Ophelia
Come back home
