Song For Kelly

Key: G Intro: G Verse 1: G Seventeen stuffed teddy bears Em Lay on a cold gravestone C G One for every year that you've been gone Am Em Just to say I love you and I'm thinking of you still C Dsus4 And I always will Break: D

Verse 2: G Seventeen red roses Em Placed in a heart shaped face C G Tattered, torn, and broken just like mine Am Em Even though the tears are flowing gently down my face C Dsus4 I'll be just fine Break: D Chorus: C I wish I could've known you even for a little while G But that's not the way the world had planned B7 Em I just have to close my eyes and see an angel's smile A7 D One day that might help me understand G C Why unlike sand Am D G Angel dust won't slip right through my hand Verse 3: G Seventeen bright candles Em Left lighting in your name C G All beside each other in a row Am Em Broken hearted memories flicker in each flame C Dsus4 And through the afterglow Break: D Chorus: C I wish I could've known you even for a little while G But that's not the way the world had planned B7 Em I just have to close my eyes and see an angel's smile A7 D One day that might help me understand G C Why unlike sand Am D G Angel dust won't slip right through my hand Gadd9, F# walkdown Em C Now it's time for me to say goodbye G D I'm sorry that my tears dropped on your stone Em C Seventeen times I tried not to cry Am Dsus4 But I hate to leave you here alone Break: D C I wish I could've held you even for a little while G But that's not the way the world had planned B7 Em I just have to close my eyes and see an angel's smile A7 D One day that might help me understand G C Why unlike sand Am D Em A Angel dust won't slip right through my hand Am Why unlike sand D G Angel dust won't slip right through my hand Outro 1: G Seventeen stuffed teddy bears C Lay on a cold gravestone G One for every year that you've been gone Instrumental outro: G
