Intro:
Em C Em G E Em G C Em G Em G C Bm G F#
Verse:
Em
What will I find?
G C
Some sacred thing to help me handle the
tragedy?
Bm G
Or did I once-Did I have it and lose it?
Em
No one should ever have to walk through
G
the fire alone.
C
No one should ever have to brave that storm.
Bm G
No, Everybody needs someone or something.
Em G C
And when I sing, don’t I sing your name out
Bm G D
Right at the same time that I sing my own?
Em E C
Some days I swear I can feel you splitting
Bm
the light through the window frame.
Em
The shapes it makes are always warmer,
G
always brighter than the rest of what comes
C Em D
through.
Em E C
Some days I swear I can hear you sing to me
Bm
or whisper my name in the slightest way.
Am
It’s like the warmest light now laid across
A C D
my bedroom floor is somehow actually you and
Not just sunlight.
Em
I have the memory climb down the balcony.
D
I put a flower on the back of its dress.
C
It’s probably best to forget it.
It’s probably best to let go.
Em
I paint it the shade of where the skin and
the lip meet,
D
Only a moment after breaking the kiss.
C
And I blur out everything else.
That’s how I choose to remember it.
Em
Some nights are a lot like the days, I lay
awake too late, I watch the shadows casted
A
Trace your shape. Those silver slivers on
Am
the wall then on the bedsheets.
B
I hear your song in the trees. I finally fall
Em
into rest.
Often later when I’m sleeping you show up in
my dreams.
Just doing simple things, like buying groceries.
A
And when I wake up I could swear you must’ve
B
just left me
Like you got up to make breakfast or maybe just
D Em
to get dressed.
D A
But the truth is, you were never there.
E
You won’t ever be.
D Am
Sometimes I think I’m not either so what do I do
Bm
When every day still seems to start and end with
E
you?
D Am
And you won’t ever know, you won’t ever see,
F#m
How much your ghost since then has been defining me.
A D
I leave the memory up atop the balcony.
Em
I tear this flower from the back of the dress.
A D Em
It’s best this time, I bet, to just forget and let go.
Paint it the shade of where the lip bleeds and blur
it out.
I blur out everything else, just blur out everything
else.
C Bm
And let go, and let go, and let go.
E A
C Bm G E
Everybody has to let go someday
C Bm A
Everybody has to let go.
C Bm G
I wonder when I will. I wonder.
E C
But if I still hear you singing in every city
Em
I meet
Am C E
After I blur it all out, our every memory, if
C E
You never fade with the days, your shape still
Em
haunting me then,
Cm
Should I not just sing along?
C D E
Should I not just sing along?
D A B E
I will sing sweetly hope that the notes change
D
but I do not need it to happen.
I’m not resigned to it.
A F#m
And If they never do I’ll sing your name in
A
every line.
D
Just like I did throughout this.
Em
Just like I’ve always done.
In every gun, the empty church, and every
A
tortured son.
D
In all those giving up.
Em
In all those giving in.
Until I die I will sing our names in unison.
A D
Until I die I will sing our names in unison.
