[Verse]
F#m7 Aadd9
I remember when you asked me,
Esus4
“What do you do when it doesn’t get better,
F#m7
And you can’t decide whether
Aadd9 Esus4
To hold on tight or to let this go
F#m7
How do I let this go?”
Aadd9 Esus4
It was the first time I felt true cold
F#m7
D stone monument with heavy words
Aadd9 Esus4
I felt the weight of every one I heard
[Chorus]
F#m7 Aadd9 A
I hope you know that you can call
F#m7
I’m here to talk things over
Aadd9 A
We can stay up till the morning
F#m7
Or at least till we’re both sober
Aadd9 A
The sorrow that you carry soon will end
F#m7
You’re nearly past it
Dadd9 Am A
I’ve been there before as well, I won’t take for granted
[Verse]
F#m7 Aadd9 Esus4 F#m7 Aadd9 Esus
It’s hard to accept and move on, search for better things, to rectify what was and what still remains
F#m7 Aadd9 Esus4
I hope in that moment of desperation
F#m7 Aadd9 Esus4
You found reconciliation
[Chorus]
F#m7 Aadd9 A
I just wish you would have called
F#m7
We could have talked this over
Aadd9 A
Waited till the morning
F#m7
Or at least till we were sober
Aadd9 A
The burden that you carried didn’t die
F#m7
You only passed it
Dadd9 Am A
The weight pulled me to my knees when I saw your casket
