Dm F G 2x

Verse 1:
           Dm
You never know just what you've got
          F                        G
Till it's slipping through your fingers
       Dm
Never know just what you've got
          F                 G
Till it's gone with the wind
        Dm
And you never miss your shadow
            Fm                 G
Till there's no one left beside you
Dm
 You never miss your shadow
             F
Till you're alone
G
 Alone in the dark

You never know just what will break you

Till you're picking up the pieces
       Dm
Never know just what will break you
          F                     G
Till your world, it falls apart
       Dm
Never know how small your voice is
            F                 G
Till you're screaming at the silence
        Dm
Never know how small your voice is
                  F
Till you're arguing
G
Arguing with God

Chorus:
   Dm
But   I saw Death's face today
F             G
  As he led my friend away
Dm
 I saw Death's face today
F               G
 As he cast his shadow over me
Dm
 I saw Death's face today
F             G
 As he led my friend away
Dm
 So I'll ask who I gotta pay
F
To bring him back
G
Bring him back to me

Interlude:

Dm F G

Outro:
           Dm
You never know the words you should've said
 N.C.
Until they're all you're left with
N.C.
Until the dirt is falling and the guilt, it burns your bones
N.C.
And we ask the biggest question
N.C.
Why the fuck did this all happen?
N.C.
Who on Earth deserves this and what the hell do we do now?
N.C.
So we live like we have lost
N.C.
And we love like we are broken
N.C.
And as the colour leaves the sky, we're left in reverence of the frailty of it all
