She’s Gone — NOFX
A blackened w
ick is what rema
ins
– the flame was bl
own out just r
ecently
Although the ca
ndle hadn’t bu
rned down to the stick
It won’t be lit again,
the day won’t
be quite as br
ight
We don’t kn
ow what she may have be
en, all we k
now is what she left beh
ind
An apa
rtment cluttered with chi
ldren’s toys and photos of goo
d ti
mes
In the b
edroom there’s sheets on the wi
ndows
There’s a fo
ur poster bed for a r
eason
On the flo
or there’s a box full of se
crets, it won’t be opened
Here older b
oys and girls would pl
ay
, all inhi
bitions were le
ft behind
And as the d
oor would close her fa
ce began to shine
This was her finest hour, this w
as her finest ti
me
She’s g
one and it’s n
ot gonna be all r
ight, n
ot for me sh
e’s g
one
And it’s n
ot gonna be all ri
ght
Not for me s
he’s g
one but not forgo
tten she’s still he
re
In all those ye
ars she touched so ma
ny lives
Who’s gonna wat
ch that little g
irl she left behind?
Car
ol Ann stands alone in the schoolyard, all the other children have gone
After wa
iting for hours she ca
n’t understan
d
why her m
other left her
Solo (this is probably really messed up but hey, NOFX have two guitars)

In the d
arkness she sees defin
ition, in the s
ilence she hears someone ca
lling
After ni
ghtmares she lies in bed scre
aming but there’s no reaction
There’s no one listening
, there’s n
o one now she’s go
ne
And it’s n
ot gonna be all r
ight, n
ot for me s
he’s go
ne (repeat multiple x)
