VERSE:
     G+G
I won't hold my tongue.
           C majorC
I'm not okay without you here.
        G+G
I guess what's done is done.
                C majorC
I just feel so exposed without you near.

BREAK:
A minorAm                C majorC
  And I won't say that I'm okay,
A minorAm
  'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                  C majorC  D MajorD
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


PRE-CHORUS:
      G+G
You always taught me to be good,

And always do my best to be selfless
    C majorC
But I know that God is holding you

And I am so damn jealous,
     A minorAm
'Cause I miss your arms around me

And the way you make me laugh.
     D MajorD
Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says

You're never coming back.

CHORUS:
     G+G
So I'm sitting in my room

As I try to write this song.
    C majorC
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.

It's just that everything seems wrong,
      A minorAm
And I keep bursting into tears

Because the pain won't go away,
       D MajorD
Because the father took my best friend

And said she cannot come out to play
     G+G  C majorC  G+G  C majorC
Anymore.


REFRAIN:
     G+G
I won't hold my tongue.
           C majorC
I'm not okay without you here.
     G+G
I won't hold my tongue.
           C majorC
I'm not okay without you here.
     G+G
I won't hold my tongue.
           C majorC
I'm not okay without you here.


VERSE:
        G+G
I guess what's done is done.
                C majorC
I just feel so exposed without you near.


BREAK:
A minorAm                C majorC
  And I won't say that I'm okay,
A minorAm
  'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                  C majorC  D MajorD
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


PRE-CHORUS:
      G+G
You always taught me to be good,

And always do my best to be selfless

But I know that God is holding you

And I am so damn jealous,

'Cause I miss your arms around me

And the way you make me laugh.

CHORUS:
       G+G
And now I'm sitting in my room

As I try to write this song.
    C majorC
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.

It's just that everything seems wrong,
      A minorAm
But I will try my best to be good

So I can pay my way,
      D MajorD
Straight through the pearly gates

Into your arms so we can play
   G+G
Once more.


SPOKEN OUTRO: (play Ab, DbDb over and over until end)
G+G
Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart
  C majorC
And uh, The only reason that isn't
                  G+G
Stated in my life is because of you

And I really don't understand it God

That you introduced me to

What would take you away so fast
  C majorC
When you were the only person

That ever understood a thing I ever said

And I really don't understand
               G+G
How to deal with this anymore

And, I'm just really not okay with this
  C majorC
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
               G+G
But I don't want to be selfish

I don't want you to be in heaven

I want you to be back down here

I don't want you to be there
           C majorC
I want you to be here

What am I supposed to do now
           G+G C majorC G+G C majorC fade out...
That's all I'm asking
