Intro
B Em B Em
[Verse 1]
B
Here I am again
Em B
Pick my heart up off the floor
Em
And all that once was mine and yours
G#m E
And throw it all into the trash
B
Cause I'll walk these halls again
Em B
But you won't walk here anymore
Em G#m
Just me and all these ghosts of yours
G#m E
I wish they'd all stay in the past
F# E
But sometimes I get lost in your memory
F# E
As I wander these old dirty streets
F# F#
I keep lookin' over my shoulder
F#
Thinkin' you were still holdin' on
[Chorus]
G#m
To my hand
E
Brush my cheek
B F#
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
E
But when I turn, there's no one there
G#m
But empty streets
B F#
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
E
And every night you meet me here
G#m
To see me watch you leave again
G#m7 F#
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* G#m
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
F# B
But it's time to say goodbye
Em B Em
Oooh ooohoohoo
[Verse 2]
B
So here I lie again
Em B
As empty as I've ever been
Em G#m
All that's left are the funeral hymns
E Em
Won't you abide with me. Let me go
B B
pea---cefully
B
If I could do it all again
Em B
I would've been a different man
Em G#m
One to hold you to the ends of the earth
E E B B
And baaaaaaack—again. I keep thinking you might...
[Chorus]
G#m
Take my hand
E
Brush my cheek
B F#
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
E
But when I turn, there's no one there
G#m
But empty streets
B F#
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
E
And every night you meet me here
G#m
To see me watch you leave again
G#m7 F#
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* G#m
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
F# B
But it's time to say goodbye
