[Verse]
Cm7 Aadd9
I remember when you asked me,
A#sus4
“What do you do when it doesn’t get better,
Cm7
And you can’t decide whether
Aadd9 A#sus4
To hold on tight or to let this go
Cm7
How do I let this go?”
Aadd9 A#sus4
It was the first time I felt true cold
Cm7
G# stone monument with heavy words
Aadd9 A#sus4
I felt the weight of every one I heard
[Chorus]
Cm7 Aadd9 D#
I hope you know that you can call
Cm7
I’m here to talk things over
Aadd9 D#
We can stay up till the morning
Cm7
Or at least till we’re both sober
Aadd9 D#
The sorrow that you carry soon will end
Cm7
You’re nearly past it
G#add9 Am D#
I’ve been there before as well, I won’t take for granted
[Verse]
Cm7 Aadd9 A#sus4 Cm7 Aadd9 A#sus
It’s hard to accept and move on, search for better things, to rectify what was and what still remains
Cm7 Aadd9 A#sus4
I hope in that moment of desperation
Cm7 Aadd9 A#sus4
You found reconciliation
[Chorus]
Cm7 Aadd9 D#
I just wish you would have called
Cm7
We could have talked this over
Aadd9 D#
Waited till the morning
Cm7
Or at least till we were sober
Aadd9 D#
The burden that you carried didn’t die
Cm7
You only passed it
G#add9 Am D#
The weight pulled me to my knees when I saw your casket
