[Intro 1]
[Am][C][G][Am]
[C][G][Am]
[C]

[Verse 1]
If you and [C]I,
we died [G]tomorrow
Would you be [Am]happy with all of the
things you've [C]done?
Years, they never seem [G]to slow down

[Interlude 1]
'Til they're gone
[Am][C]

[Verse 2]
The air, it [C]seems, is getting cool [G]now
And I can feel my [Am]mind[C]
Room is spinning 'round and 'round
[G]And fuck, please wake me up[Am]

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Now, I need these [C]memories in
me until the day that I leave
'Til the [G]day I believe in the stories
I read when [Am]I'm alone
I got my [C]family in Ohio and my girl in LA
[G]My mom and dad in Texas,
but I can't seem to stay for too [Am]long
Too long
[C]

[Verse 4]
[F]
Now, when I leave, it's not just [Am]for me,
it's not [C]just for me
I promise [Am]to keep when I was
crying and you held my [Em]hand[F]
Tell [Dm]my mother that I'[F]m gone,
[C]an d my sister that I love her so
[Am]And, oh, my father he ought to know
I'll be doing [Em]just fine on my [G]own

[Interlude 2]
On my own
[C][G][Am]
[C]

[Verse 5]
Yeah, [C]I remember you laying [G]down there
And you could hardly [Am]cry,
but I saw in your [C]eye
Then you told us, "It'll be [G]okay"
But fuck, I'm still not [Am]okay, [C]okay
Oh yeah, all [Am]of this h[G]urt you sing about for the c[Am]himes,
[C]the chimes
Yeah, I know I should've
shown you my [G]face more
But it was easier for me to
drink [Am]away my pain
Now I think about it every day

[Verse 6]
Now Katie, Sarah, [C]Julia,
and I have an angel above
And there'll nev[G]er be a day when she's not by our side,
[Am]our side
Yeah, I got my [C]family in Ohio
and my girl in LA
My [G]ma and dad in Texas,
but I can't seem to stay for too [Am]long

[Verse 7]
For too long
[F]
Now, when I leave, it's not just for [C]me,
it's not just for me
I promise [Am]to keep when I was
crying and you held my [Em]hand[F]
Tell my mother that I'm [Am]gone,
[C]and my sister that I l[Am]ove her so
And, oh, my father he ought to know
I'll be [Em]do ing just fine on my o[G]wn
On my [C]own

[Verse 8]
(If you and [C]I,
we [G]died tomorrow)
(Would you be [Am]happy with all of the
[F]things you've done?)

[Verse 9]
Now and [F]then, now and [C]then,
I just [G]hold it [C]in[G]
But, oh my god,
I feel it burning [C]in my chest [G]again[F]
And outside, [Am]as th[F]e snow s[Am]tuck
[C]to the pavement
My sister had [G]tears rolling down
her freezing [C]skin[G][F]
From time to time I [Am]wonder why it
[C]had to happen so [G]soon
Why'd it have to happen [C]so
[G]soo[Am]n?[F]

[Outro 1]
