Intro:
F Bbsus2 (x4)
Verse:
F Bbsus2 F
I guess I didn’t spend long enough staring at her face
F Bbsus2 F
Or listening to the words she'd say
F Bbsus2 F Bbsus2
Uploading her accent as a voice in my brain
F Bbsus2
I know she had different coloured parts of her eyes
F Bbsus2
But I can’t quite picture them in my mind
F Faug Bbsus2 F
I’m losing sight of her all the time
Bbsus2 Csus4
Imaginations working overtime
Bbsus2 Csus4
File types corrupted as neurons die
Bbsus2 Bbm9 F C
Soon she'll be totally made up by my mind
Chorus:
Bbsus2 F
I think all the best pepole die first
Bbsus2 F
So they don't have to see what we made of the world
Bbsus2 Bbm Dm
But already got her body, so leave the rest with me
Bbsus2 Bbm F
No, you don't have to take her twice from me
Verse:
F Bbsus2
They're running out of space in the cemeteries
F Bbsus2
And I’m running out of storage in my memory
F Bbsus2
I don’t have the data to fill in the gaps
F Bbsus2
I only have 2 videos of her and her laugh
F Bbsus2
And as much as I hate what it does to my brain
F Bbsus2
I think it's easier to grieve in the digital age
F Bbsus2
'Cause if only I could scroll and see her and her face
F C
Then maybe she won't feel as far away
Bbsus2 Csus4
And yes, time has made it easier
F C
I can think of how she's gone, and I won’t cry
Bbsus2
But I kinda hate how I’m only numb
F C Am
'Cause she's been dead for a third of my life
Bbsus2 Csus4
Oh, imaginations working overtime
F Dm13
Files corrupted as neurons die
Bbsus2 Bbm F
All of my fragments of her don't fit together now
Chorus:
C Bbsus2 F
Why do all the best people die first?
Bbsus2 F
At least they don’t have to see what we made of the world
Bbsus2 Bbm6 Dm Bbsus2
But you already got her body, so leave the rest with me
Bbm F
No, you don't have to take her twice from me
Dm13 Bbsus2 Bbm F
Oh, you don't have to take her from my memory.
