Key: Am

Chord Progression: Am  Dm  G  C  Am  Dm  F/G  C

❄ Verse 1:
Am                         Dm
Why couldn’t god fill the world with
G                     C
A bunch of people and just leave it



Am                   Dm
Instead of everybody grieving
F/G             C
Alone in their despair

Am                          Dm
What is the purpose of this hurting
G                           C
Why are the seasons always turning
Tell me
Am                          Dm
If love will always end for certain
F/G                   C
Then why’d he put it there

❄ Chorus: 
Am              Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G                    C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am                     Dm
As long as I live i'm never gonna get it
     F/G          C
Why anyone has to go

❄ Verse 2:
Am                Dm
This girl I knew made me better
G                               C
We’d fall asleep and touch our feet together
Am                     Dm
Now I’m just trying to forget her
    F/G           C
To keep me moving on

Am                Dm
I should be happy that I knew her
G                             C
And not the fact I now mean nothing to her
Am                         Dm
It’s kinda crazy she’s a stranger
    F/G               C
And all her stuff is gone

❄ Chorus: 
Am              Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G                    C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am                     Dm
As long as I live i'm never gonna get it
     F/G          C
Why anyone has to go

❄ Chorus: 
Am              Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G                    C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am                     Dm
As long as I live i'm never gonna get it
     F/G          C
Why anyone has to go
