[Verse 1]
G
Here I am again
Cm G
Pick my heart up off the floor
Cm
And all that once was mine and yours
Em C
And throw it all into the trash
G
Cause I'll walk these halls again
Cm G
But you won't walk here anymore
Cm Em
Just me and all these ghosts of yours
Em C
I wish they'd all stay in the past
D C
But sometimes I get lost in your memory
D C
As I wander these old dirty streets
D D
I keep lookin' over my shoulder
D
Thinkin' you were still holdin' on
[Chorus]
Em
To my hand
C
Brush my cheek
G D
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
C
But when I turn, there's no one there
Em
But empty streets
G D
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
C
And every night you meet me here
Em
To see me watch you leave again
Em7 D
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* Em
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
D G
But it's time to say goodbye
Cm G Cm
Oooh ooohoohoo
[Verse 2]
G
So here I lie again
Cm G
As empty as I've ever been
Cm Em
All that's left are the funeral hymns
C Cm
Won't you abide with me. Let me go
G G
pea---cefully
G
If I could do it all again
Cm G
I would've been a different man
Cm Em
One to hold you to the ends of the earth
C C G G
And baaaaaaack—again. I keep thinking you might...
[Chorus]
Em
Take my hand
C
Brush my cheek
G D
You'd wrap your lovin' arms so tight around my sides
C
But when I turn, there's no one there
Em
But empty streets
G D
And it feels like cutting my heart open every time
C
And every night you meet me here
Em
To see me watch you leave again
Em7 D
You finally wrote a song that makes me cry
A* G* Em
Oh, and it's so beau-------tiful
Bm* A*
It's so beau---tiful
D G
But it's time to say goodbye
