Verse 1:
F# C# G#m B
No words appear before me in the aftermath
F# C# G#m B
Salt streams out my eyes and into my ears
F# C# G#m B
Every single thing I touch becomes sick with sadness
F# C# G#m B
Because it's all over now, all out to see
Chorus:
F# C#
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
G#m
You were bigger than the whole sky
B
You were more than just a short time
F# C#
And I've got a lot to pine about
G#m
I've got a lot to live without
B
I'm never gonna meet what could've been, would've been
F# C#
What should've been you
G#m B
What could've been, would've been you
Break:
F# C# G#m B
Verse 2:
F# C# G#m B
Did some bird flap its wings over in Asia?
F# C# G#m B
Did some force take you because I didn't pray?
F# C# G#m B
Every single thing to come has turned into ashes
F# C# G#m
'Cause it's all over, it's not meant to be
B
So I'll say words I don't believe
Chorus:
F# C#
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
G#m
You were bigger than the whole sky
B
You were more than just a short time
F# C#
And I've got a lot to pine about

I've got a lot to live without

I'm never gonna meet what could've been, would've been
F# C# G#m
What should've been you

What could've been, would've been you

What should've been you

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You were bigger than the whole sky
