[Verse]
Am7 Aadd9
I remember when you asked me,
Gsus4
“What do you do when it doesn’t get better,
Am7
And you can’t decide whether
Aadd9 Gsus4
To hold on tight or to let this go
Am7
How do I let this go?”
Aadd9 Gsus4
It was the first time I felt true cold
Am7
F stone monument with heavy words
Aadd9 Gsus4
I felt the weight of every one I heard
[Chorus]
Am7 Aadd9 C
I hope you know that you can call
Am7
I’m here to talk things over
Aadd9 C
We can stay up till the morning
Am7
Or at least till we’re both sober
Aadd9 C
The sorrow that you carry soon will end
Am7
You’re nearly past it
Fadd9 Am C
I’ve been there before as well, I won’t take for granted
[Verse]
Am7 Aadd9 Gsus4 Am7 Aadd9 Gsus
It’s hard to accept and move on, search for better things, to rectify what was and what still remains
Am7 Aadd9 Gsus4
I hope in that moment of desperation
Am7 Aadd9 Gsus4
You found reconciliation
[Chorus]
Am7 Aadd9 C
I just wish you would have called
Am7
We could have talked this over
Aadd9 C
Waited till the morning
Am7
Or at least till we were sober
Aadd9 C
The burden that you carried didn’t die
Am7
You only passed it
Fadd9 Am C
The weight pulled me to my knees when I saw your casket
