[Verse 1]
D
Here I am again
Gm D
Pick my heart up off the floor
Gm
And all that once was mine and yours
Bm G
And throw it all into the trash
D
Cause I'll walk these halls again
Gm D
But you won't walk here anymore
Gm Bm
Just me and all these ghosts of yours
Bm G
I wish they'd all stay in the past
A G
But sometimes I get lost in your memory
A G
As I wander these old dirty streets
A A
I keep lookin' over my shoulder
A
Thinkin' you were still holdin' on
[Chorus]
Bm
To my hand
G
Brush my cheek
D A
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
G
But when I turn, there's no one there
Bm
But empty streets
D A
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
G
And every night you meet me here
Bm
To see me watch you leave again
Bm7 A
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* Bm
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
A D
But it's time to say goodbye
Gm D Gm
Oooh ooohoohoo
[Verse 2]
D
So here I lie again
Gm D
As empty as I've ever been
Gm Bm
All that's left are the funeral hymns
G Gm
Won't you abide with me. Let me go
D D
pea---cefully
D
If I could do it all again
Gm D
I would've been a different man
Gm Bm
One to hold you to the ends of the earth
G G D D
And baaaaaaack—again. I keep thinking you might...
[Chorus]
Bm
Take my hand
G
Brush my cheek
D A
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
G
But when I turn, there's no one there
Bm
But empty streets
D A
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
G
And every night you meet me here
Bm
To see me watch you leave again
Bm7 A
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* Bm
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
A D
But it's time to say goodbye
