Lyrics

[Intro]
[strummed acoustic guitar]
[Verse 1]
[male vocals enter]
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
[male vocals enter]
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
[Chorus]
[bass guitar enters]
No, I don't believe them
Think that they're all deceiving
No, I don't believe them
Know that they're all
No, I don't believe them
Think they're all trying and kidding away
[Bridge]
[vocalizing] Oh
[Verse 2]
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
[vocalizing] Oh
[Verse 2]
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
[Chorus 2]
[belted vocals]
And I'll never believe them
I pray they're all kidding
And I know they're deceiving
Spreading me down
And I'll never believe them
It's buried, never gets easy, I know
Nothing ever does
Ever does
[Outro]
[strained vocals]
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
Oh, gone away
They said you'd gone
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
They said you'd gone away
Hey, way
[vocalizing] Oh, hey
Oh
Oh
Oh
They said you'd gone
