It must a been a place so dark, you couldn't feel the light

This can't be the way you meant to draw a crowd
Chorus:
D Em G
Oh why that's what I keep askin'
Em D
Was there anything I could have said or done

Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul, god only knows

What went wrong and why you would leave the stage in the middle of a song
C Em D G C Em D

Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a seventeen year old

When you took the stage you shined just like the sun

Now the oak trees are swayin' in the early autumn breeze

This old world really ain't that bad a place

Oh but I do have one burning question

Who told you life wasn't worth the fight

They were wrong

And now you're gone

Your beautiful song
