Chords with lyrics
Capo on 1st fret
Intro
A augmentedA
A augmentedA
A augmentedA single rose left to remember
A augmentedA
As a single tear falls from her eye
A augmentedA
Another cold day in December
A augmentedA
A augmentedA view from the day she said goodbye
A augmentedA
It seems it's only been a moment
A augmentedA
Since the angels took him from her arms
E minorEm
She was left there
A augmentedA
Holding on to their tomorrow
A augmentedA
But as they lay him in the ground
A augmentedA
Her heart would sing without a sound
D MajorD
For the first time you can open your eyes
E minorEm
And see the world without your sorrow
A augmentedA
No-one knows the pain you left behind
D MajorD
Or the peace you could never find
E minorEm
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
G+G
Welcome to the first day of your life
A augmentedA
Just open up your eyeeeeees, eyeeeeees
A augmentedA
A augmentedA single lifetime waves behind her
A augmentedA
As she draws her final breath
A augmentedA
Just beyond the door he'll find her
A augmentedA
Taking her hand he softly says
D MajorD
For the first time you can open your eyes
E minorEm
And see the world without your sorrow
A augmentedA
No-one knows the pain you left behind
D MajorD
Or the peace you could never find
E minorEm
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
G+G
Welcome to the first day of your life
C majorC
Just open up your eyes
E minorEm
As I lay down tonight
G+G
Safe on the other side
A augmentedA
No more tears to cry
D MajorD
For the first time you can open your eyes
E minorEm
And see the world without your sorrow
A augmentedA
No-one knows the pain you left behind
D MajorD
Or the peace you could never find
E minorEm
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
G+G
Welcome to the first day of your life
A augmentedA
Just open up your eyeeeeees, eyeeeeees
A augmentedA
Eyeeeeees, eyeeeeees
