[Verse]
Dm7 Aadd9
I remember when you asked me,
Csus4
“What do you do when it doesn’t get better,
Dm7
And you can’t decide whether
Aadd9 Csus4
To hold on tight or to let this go
Dm7
How do I let this go?”
Aadd9 Csus4
It was the first time I felt true cold
Dm7
A# stone monument with heavy words
Aadd9 Csus4
I felt the weight of every one I heard
[Chorus]
Dm7 Aadd9 F
I hope you know that you can call
Dm7
I’m here to talk things over
Aadd9 F
We can stay up till the morning
Dm7
Or at least till we’re both sober
Aadd9 F
The sorrow that you carry soon will end
Dm7
You’re nearly past it
A#add9 Am F
I’ve been there before as well, I won’t take for granted
[Verse]
Dm7 Aadd9 Csus4 Dm7 Aadd9 Csus
It’s hard to accept and move on, search for better things, to rectify what was and what still remains
Dm7 Aadd9 Csus4
I hope in that moment of desperation
Dm7 Aadd9 Csus4
You found reconciliation
[Chorus]
Dm7 Aadd9 F
I just wish you would have called
Dm7
We could have talked this over
Aadd9 F
Waited till the morning
Dm7
Or at least till we were sober
Aadd9 F
The burden that you carried didn’t die
Dm7
You only passed it
A#add9 Am F
The weight pulled me to my knees when I saw your casket
