Of Missing Persons

Of Missing Persons - Jackson Browne[00:00:00]

Your father was a rounder[00:00:20]

He played that rock and roll[00:00:25]

A leaper and a bounder[00:00:30]

Down to his gypsy soul[00:00:34]

The music was his angel[00:00:39]

And sorrow was his star[00:00:44]

And those of us who follow[00:00:49]

Might hope to reach as far[00:00:54]

They're walking slow in Houston[00:00:59]

Speechless in D C [00:01:04]

There's no way I could tell you[00:01:09]

What he meant to me[00:01:12]

Your mother's a survivor[00:01:19]

She'll do what must be done[00:01:23]

Her children will revive her[00:01:28]

And help her see the sun[00:01:33]

She almost knew that unison[00:01:38]

But the singing stopped too soon[00:01:43]

Now she shares the silence[00:01:48]

With a man up in the moon[00:01:53]

To speak of missing persons[00:01:58]

Tonight there's only one[00:02:03]

And we all carry with us what the man's begun[00:02:07]

And you can sing this song[00:02:15]

On July the fourth[00:02:21]

In the sunny South and the frozen North[00:02:25]

It's a day of loss it's your day of birth[00:02:35]

Does it take a death to learn what a life is worth [00:02:44]

Your brothers are all older[00:02:54]

And they'll take it in their stride[00:02:59]

The world's a little colder[00:03:04]

But manhood's on their side[00:03:09]

Now you're the little girl child[00:03:14]

And you look so much like him[00:03:19]

And he's right there inside you[00:03:24]

Each time you want to sing[00:03:28]

Sing of missing persons[00:03:33]

Tonight there's only one[00:03:38]

But he's where you can find him when it's said and done[00:03:43]

And we will sing this song[00:03:51]

On July the fourth[00:03:56]

From the sunny South and the frozen North[00:04:01]

This will always be your day of birth[00:04:10]

May you always see what your life is worth[00:04:20]

Sing a song on July the fourth[00:05:27]

In the sunny South and the frozen North[00:05:35]

It's a day of loss it's your day of birth[00:05:44]
